Abstract: The purpose of the PEACE Program was to provide a highly
credible, multidisciplinary set of geologic, geophysical, and
material-properties data in order to identify crater dimensions and
features for two high-yield nuclear craters and to better understand
the dynamic processes that initially formed these craters and that
subsequently modified them. These data are essential to the Department
of Defense to better understand the survivability of strategic defense
systems in the event of a nuclear attack. Subjects include: physical
Stratigraphic Framework; Sr-Isotope Framework; Mineralogy; Organic
Content; Insoluble Residues; Downhole Geophysical Logs; Borehole
gravity Surveys; Seismic Reference Surveys; Benthic Samples; Additional
Paleontologic Studies; Radiation Chemistry ; Additional Sea-Floor
Observations; Crater Interpretation.
