Abstract

A marine geophysical survey that used Seabeam, multi- and single-channel seismic reflection, gravity, and magnetic profiling was conducted in two locations along the landward slope of the Peru Trench. This survey was conducted during the SeaPERC cruise of the Jean Charcot in July 1986 (Bourgois et al., 1986a; Bourgois et al., 1986b; Bourgois et al., 1987; Bourgois et al., in press). These areas were two possible drilling locations for ODP Leg 112, which was scheduled to begin in November 1986. The drilling transects center around latitudes of 5°30'S and 9°30'S, along multichannel seismic lines CDP-3 and CDP-2, respectively. The northern transect is located in the Paita Zone (Fig. 1, Box 2), and the southern transect is in the Chimbote Zone (Fig. 1, Box 6). During Leg 112, we drilled two sites (683 and 685) in the Chimbote area. This became the northern transect of Leg 112. Here, we report the Seabeam data acquired during the SeaPERC cruise. Drilling results from Sites 683 and 685, the CDP-2 multichannel seismic record, and the Seabeam data provide a threedimensional view of this region.
