Reprocessed legacy seismic-reflection data from USGS field activity B-1-72-SC collected offshore southern California

Seismic-reflection data were collected offshore southern California in 1972 aboard the USNS Bartlett (USGS Field Activity B-1-72-SC). In 2021 these legacy data were reprocessed to improve accuracy and geologic resolvability of California’s continental margin.

Photographs of vibracores collected during a Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute cruise in November 2019 offshore of south-central California (USGS FAN 2019-667-FA)

This dataset includes photographs of 49 vibracores that were collected by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) in November 2019 aboard the R/V Western Flyer using the remotely operated vehicle (ROV) Doc Ricketts. The collection of these cores was funded entirely by MBARI, and the cores have been donated to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The cores were collected in collaboration with the USGS and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) and are located in the same study area as the ...
