Data were collected and processed by the the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center (PCMSC) with fieldwork activity number 2018-686-FA. The chirp sub-bottom data are provided in SEG-Y format. Purpose: High-resolution chirp sub-bottom data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center in May of 2019 in Whiskeytown Reservoir, California using an Edgetech SB-512i sub-bottom profiler. These data were collected to measure possible debris flows into the lake during the 2018-2019 rainy season following the July-August 2018 Carr fire that burned vegetation around the entire lake. Post-fire hillslope sediment yields are commonly substantially greater than pre-fire yields, but the degree to which they increase can vary substantially. Effects of wildfire on sediment yield have important implications for hazards (debris-flow risk), ecosystem disturbance and recovery, and downstream water resources (storage capacity in lakes, as well as water quality). These data are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public. These data can be used with geographic information systems or other software to identify bathymetric features. These data are not intended to be used for navigation.

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: Estimated to be no less than 3 m due to total propagated uncertainties of navigation as well as data processing. Vertical_Positional_Accuracy: Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: A formal accuracy assessment of the vertical positional information in the data set has not been conducted. Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: Chirp sub-bottom data were collected using an Edgetech-512i sub-bottom profiler and converted to envelope format. Sub-bottom tow fish depth is stored in header byte 49 with an elevation scalar of -1000 (header byte 69). Navigation was converted from seconds of arc to UTM zone 10N and stored unscaled in header bytes 81 and 85. Process_Date: 2019 Spatial_Data_Organization_Information: Indirect_Spatial_Reference: Horizontal X and Y locations for each seismic profile location are stored unscaled in the SEG-Y data trace headers in header bytes 81 and 85.
