Description:
Abstract:
Chirp sub-bottom data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in collaboration with the University of Washington (UW) in the summer of 2019 along the Cascadia submarine forearc offshore Oregon and Washington.
Purpose:
Data were acquired to characterize quaternary deformation and sediment dynamics along the central and northern Cascadia margin. A total of 62 tracklines were collected and extend from the nearshore to the deformation front and were spaced between 25 and 50 kilometers apart. This work occurred on UW’s R/V Rachel Carson (UW cruise IDs RC0028 and RC0029). chirpdata were collected coincidently with high-resolution multichannel sparker seismic data (MCS). These data and information are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and general public.

Data_Set_Credit:
This data collection was a joint effort between the U.S. Geological Survey and the University of Washington (UW). The authors acknowledge the crew of UW’s R/V Rachel Carson and all those involved in in survey planning and execution.
Native_Data_Set_Environment:
SEG-Y processing was conducted in Shearwater’s Reveal seismic software (https://www.shearwatergeo.com/4/reveal-software) version 10.4.2021. QGIS-LTR (version 3.21, https://www.qgis.org/en/site/) was used to produce the navigation trackline shapefile and preview image.
Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Quality control was conducted during acquisition. Some seismic profiles have gaps in them due to system crashes or intentional shutdowns as required, under terms of our operating permit, to protect marine mammals.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Quality control was conducted during acquisition and processing to ensure consistency of SEG-Y header navigation and seismic-reflection data that matches bathymetry along the tracklines. Trackline navigation combines SEG-Y line parts into a single-track line (62 tracklines and 201 SEG-Y files, including parts).
Completeness_Report:
Dataset is considered complete for the information presented, as described in the abstract. Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for additional details.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
The manufacturer’s stated accuracy of the GPS used is +/- 0.6 meters 95 percent confidence (DGPS) (http://dev.wr.usgs.gov/idb/media/service_materials/2022/12/07/101121522789/Hemisphere_V100specsheet.pdf)

Process_Description:
The Discover acquisition software (v.6) output envelope chirp data in JSF format. Sioseis seismic software (https://sioseis.ucsd.edu/) was used to export to SEG-Y format with standard header byte locations. X and Y navigation points are written to header bytes 81/85 in UTM zone 10N coordinates. SEG-Y data files were compressed into the zip file 2019-024-FA.chirp.zip.
