Surveys associated with this research 1968/2 and 1968/7. The purpose was to collect sedimentological and geological structure data for use in a tidal model. Sediment samples were collected using a shipek grab and vibrocorer. These data archived by BGS. Details of the survey are contained in BGS Technical report WB/MC/69/3.
