This Field Procedures Manual is the comprehensive operations guide that was used to curate samples obtained from the Salton Sea Scientific Drilling Project (SSSDP). It is being published in the form used on site by the curation team. Samples recovered from the SSSDP were curated following the Policy Guidelines established for the Department of Energy/Office of Basic Energy Sciences (DOE/OBES) Continental Scientific Drilling Program (CSDP)/Thermal Regimes effort, which recognizes the uniqueness and site-specific nature of each drilling project. The SSSDP is a rotary drilling project that has provided cuttings and spot cores as well as liquid and gas samples. This manual provides details on handling all of these sample types. 6 refs., 10 figs.
