This dataset contains geoscientific data logged during PACLARK 2 (FR01/88) cruise on RV Franklin 8-28 January 1988 in Western Woodlark Basin and Goodenough Bay,Papua New Guinea. These data include logged station coordinates and information for CTD/hydrocasts, dredges, sediment cores, bathymetric surveys and camera tows. Please see the associated cruise report for details. Cruise FR 01/88 was undertaken to locate evidence of hydrothermal activity in the Western Woodlark Basin (east of Papua New Guinea) and Goodenough Bay, and to map submarine geology in an area of ocean ridge propagation into a continental margin. Survey methods included bathymetric profiling, magnetometer surveys, dredgers and gravity corers, a deep-tow camera system, and CTD casts with other associated instrumentation including a transmissometer. Numerous rock, sediment and water samples were collected for laboratory study. Related cruises are FR 02/86, FR 08/91, HMAS Cook - PACLARK III and RV Akademik Mstislav Keldysh and MIR submersibles - SUPACLARK.
