Chirp…Chirp….CHIRP!

July 15th, 2010

So since arriving back in Memphis I have been working on two things. 

The Cruise Report: This is basically done. Guo Lei and I split up the writing and he did the Cruise Summary, description of the MCS acquisition, and the description of the Chirp acquisition. I wrote up all the intro stuff (cover page, table of contents, etc), the Research Vessels section, the Navigation and Track lines section, and then edited and formatted both our halves to make them read and look uniform as well as reselecting pictures because even though we have about 1000 to choose from we chose four of the same pictures in our different sections. We still need to do a couple figures with GMT or GIS and then I'll go through and renumber all the figures and make any changes and edits that Beatrice suggests. 

Chirp Data: Beatrice uploaded the Chirp data on Tuesday so since then I have been using Promax to go through each line (there's 68 in total) and diligently scanning and searching for any faulting, folding, or other regions of interest we may have missed. Some of the lines come up great and you can really see a beautiful fault and others keep you guessing. 

This is what my workstation looks like:
