Site PEAT-8C was chosen near the intersection of Lines 1 and 6. The sediment here is of typical thickness but was moved away from the line crossing primarily because of a small fault right at the cross-imaged in Line 6 and also because the basement reflector was well developed at the new location. The site location has a relatively flat basement structure that was well imaged by seismic reflection. Sediment thickness was estimated from ODP Site 849, which has lithologies similar to Site PEAT-8C. Subbottom profiler sections image ~50 m of layered sediments in the upper sediment column.
