Archive of Geosample Data and Information from the University of Texas at Austin (UT) Institute of Geophysics
Metadata describing piston cores curated by Institute of Geophysics of the University
of Texas at Austin (UT) collected from 1976 to 1978 were coded and contributed by
UT to the Index to Marine and Lacustrine Geological Samples (IMLGS) database. Descriptions
are for 204 piston cores collected in the Gulf of Mexico, during 390 cruises of the
Gus III, the Longhorn, and the Ida Green. These samples are no longer available for
distribution/study, but are well described in the IMLGS.

Supplemental Information |
UT samples are no longer available for loan. In 1984 after a hurricane damaged the
UTIG core locker, the UT core collection was transferred to the Ocean Drilling Program
(ODP) repository in College Station. In 1997, the UT cores were de-accessioned for
lack of space. Only geosamples collected prior to 1979 curated by the University of
Texas at Austin (UT) sample repository were described in the IMLGS.
|
Purpose | The original purpose of adding information describing the UT samples to the IMLGS was to promote new research on existing samples. The samples are no longer available for loan. |

Lineage Statement | Data are no longer contributed by this repository. Incoming data were checked for adherence to controlled vocabularies, illegal data types in numeric fields, and out of range latitudes/longitudes. NCEI performed cursory visual inspection of data for reasonableness, asking the originator for guidance on discrepancies. |
