9712191 Mountain This award will support a detailed, high resolution seismic study of the New Jersey margin. Significant research effort has focused on this margin in recent years with objective of NSF support on understanding history and amplitude of sea level change during the Tertiary. Series of holes has been drilled on-shore New Jersey (EAR and OCE support) and Ocean Drilling Program has focused on drilling offshore sediment sequences. Additional ODP drilling planned for July of this year in mid-shelf region. Office of Naval Research also supporting large project in area to examine acoustics and physical properties of shallow sediments. Present project has series of objectives, including seismically tieing land drilling to offshore work; mapping spatial variability in imaged Tertiary sediments; examining sea-level fluctuation in seismic data; and surveying shallow water sites for potential future drilling. Principal investigators at Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory and Rutgers University have been leaders in focusing community research effort on this margin. ***

该奖项将支持对新泽西州边缘进行详细、高分辨率的地震研究。近年来，为了获得美国国家科学基金会对第三纪海平面变化历史和幅度的支持，对这一边缘进行了大量的研究。在新泽西海岸上已经钻了一系列的孔（EAR和OCE支持），海洋钻探计划的重点是钻探近海沉积物序列。今年7月，计划在大陆架中部地区进行更多的ODP钻探。海军研究办公室也支持该地区的大型项目，以检查浅层沉积物的声学和物理特性。目前的项目有一系列目标，包括将陆地钻井与海上作业相结合；第三纪沉积物成像空间变异性制图；地震资料中海平面波动的检验；勘测浅水区，为未来可能的钻探做准备。拉蒙特·多尔蒂地球观测站和罗格斯大学的主要研究人员一直是将社区研究工作集中在这一边缘的领导者。＊＊＊
