British Geological Survey (BGS) Sampling Survey 1968/8: Sedimentology investigations: Humber Estuary (01/Oct/1968 to 26/Oct/1968)
This marine sampling survey undertaken for research by University of Sheffield and the Institute of Geological Sciences (BGS) took place in October 1968 in the approaches to the Humber Estuary and River Humber on board the MV Moray Firth IV. 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.
