1993
1992199119901988 Summary:
A special type of echo sounder will be used to determine the depth of the water and the thickness of the sediments beneath down to bedrock. The instrument also shows the patterns of sediment distribution around the fiord. From these results, an assessment can be made of where the sediment has come from, how much there is and how the patterns of sedimentation have changed during the entire period...
