Whole-round Core Sections (WRLSC JPG)
This report provides access to digital whole-round core section images. These images were taken of the outer surface of whole-round cores before splitting, in four 90° segments, on the Section Half Imaging Logger (SHIL). The SHIL produces TIF files as well as reduced-size JPG files. The TIF files are only available on the ship; shore-based users may request them from the data librarian. A 360° composite image is also provided.

Definitions
Exp: expedition number
Site: site number
Hole: hole number
Core: core number
Type: type indicates the coring tool used to recover the core (typical types are F, H, R, X).
Sect: section number
Top depth CSF-A (m): location of the upper edge of the section expressed relative to the top of the hole.
Bottom depth CSF-A (m): location of the lower edge of the section expressed relative to the top of the hole.
Top depth [other] (m): location of the upper edge of the section expressed relative to the top of the hole. The location is presented in a scale selected by the science party or the report user.
Bottom depth [other] (m): location of the lower edge of the section expressed relative to the top of the hole. The location is presented in a scale selected by the science party or the report user.
0° quadrant image (JPG): JPG file of whole-round core section image taken with the core rotated 0°.
90° quadrant image (JPG): JPG file of whole-round core section image taken with the core rotated 90°.
180° quadrant image (JPG): JPG file of whole-round core section image taken with the core rotated 180°.
270° quadrant image (JPG): JPG file of whole-round core section image taken with the core rotated 270°.
360° composite image (JPG): JPG file of the 360° composite of the 4 quadrant whole-round core section images. The composite is manually created by the Imaging Specialists using Photoshop.
Timestamp (UTC): point in time at which the 0° whole-round core section image was acquired. The remaining 3 quadrant images are taken in sequence within a few minutes. The composite 360° image is usually created within 12 hours.
