Physical properties measured on 45 sediment cores from METEOR cruise M41/1

The complete sediment series recovered with the gravity corer during METEOR cruise M 41/1 were subjected to laboratory geophysical studies. Shipboard measurements on the segmented cores routinely comprised three basic physical parameters: - compressional (p-) wave velocity vp, - electric resistivity Rs (as a measure of density and porosity), - magnetic volume susceptibility K.

These properties are closely related to lithology and grain-size of the sediments and provide high-resolution core logs (spacing 1 cm for p-wave velocity, 3 cm for electric resistivity and magnetic volume susceptibility) available prior to all other detailed investigations. In addition, oriented samples for subsequent shore based rock and paleomagnetic studies were taken at typically 10 cm intervals.
