Figure F24. P-wave velocity in three orthogonal directions obtained on a minicube (Sample 335(312)-231R-3W, 52–54 cm; PP/PMAG CUBE3215471) under different saturation conditions (after initial 24 h saturation in seawater under vacuum). A. Wiped surfaces, no water added. B. Cube soaked in seawater, no excess water removed from surfaces before measurement, deionized water (DI) added to surfaces. C. Cube fully submerged in seawater bath during measurement (velocity value before correction for the effect of container). Note the excellent repeatability in case C.
