    "descript": "This part of DS 781 presents fold data for the geologic and geomorphic map of the Offshore of Gaviota map area, California. The vector data file is included in \"Folds_OffshoreGaviota.zip,\" which is accessible from https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5066\/F7TH8JWJ.  In the offshore part of the map area, closely-spaced seismic-reflection profiles image many shallow, west-northwest striking folds that have variable geometry, length, amplitude, continuity, and wavelength. The two longest folds, the 17-km-long Molino anticline and the 22-km-long Government Point syncline, are truncated by the south strand of the Santa Ynez fault to the west and east, respectively. These regionally extensive folds and many shorter, west-trending structures are probably rooted in blind thrusts and backthrusts in the hanging wall above the Pitas Point-North Channel fault system.",
