Sediments of Boston Harbor acquired in 1968 (MENCHER shapefile).

Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
description: A study was made of the composition, grain-size distribution, and organic content of grab samples collected from Boston Harbor. In general, the coarsest mean sizes occur in the channels scoured by dredging or tidal action, and the finest in areas where no dredging has occurred and where tidal velocities are at a minimum.; abstract: A study was made of the composition, grain-size distribution, and organic content of grab samples collected from Boston Harbor.
