Description:

Abstract:

This dataset includes navigation data for marine geophysical data, collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in 2014, between Point Sal and Refugio State Beach in southern California.

Purpose:

These data were acquired to support the California Seafloor Mapping Program and USGS geologic hazards projects to aide hazard assessment of southern Hosgri fault and connections to faults in Transverse Ranges and Santa Barbara Channel. These data and information are intended for science researchers, students from elementary through college, policy makers, and general public.

Supplemental_Information:

Additional information about the field activity from which these data were derived is available online at:

Process_Description:

Data and metadata files were moved to a different location on ScienceBase, resulting in a change of ID number in the Online_Linkage and Network_Resources URLs of the metadata. In addition, edits were made as needed to bring the metadata up to current PCMSC standards including standardizing doi# links, correcting typos, and refining keywords. Point of Contact and Metadata Contact information sections were changed to static PCMSC contact information. No data were changed. Users are advised to compare the metadata date of this file to any similar file to ensure they are using the most recent version.
