These studies have built upon cooperative research with the State of Connecticut that was initiated in 1982. The current phase of this research program is directed toward studies of sea-floor sediment distribution, processes that control sediment distribution, nearshore environmental concerns, and the relation of benthic community structures to the sea-floor geology. Purpose: To release an outline of the multibeam bathymetric data acquired during NOAA survey H11361, eastern Long Island Sound, in geographic.
