voyage
Period: 1998-09-18 00:00 to 1998-10-05 00:00 Local
Duration: 17.00 days
From: Hobart To: Sydney
Region: South-east Victorian waters
Ship: Franklin [details]
Description: Franklin cruise FR 11/98 was undertaken to study the sedimentary geology of the Australian continental margin off the Gippsland Basin, in south-eastern Victoria. This region is of interest because it contains non-tropical marine limestones as well as other sedimentary rock types formed over the past 30 million years. Cruise objectives included to obtain sediment and seismic transects across the shelf; to obtain sediment, bottom photographs and seismic data from three submarine canyon heads and from the slope and proximal basin floor regions; and to obtain rock samples from strata outcropping on the sides of canyons. The results of geophysical, sedimentological and micropaleontological analyses will be used to develop a sedimentological and environmental framework for the modern sediments of the shelf, slope and proximal basins, to correlate the analogous modern sedimentary regime of the offshore Gippsland Basin with that of the Tertiary Seaspray Group, and to assess the rate of propagation and origin of submarine canyon / channel development in slope sediments.
