The objectives of the study were to understand the geologic evolution of Cat Island relative to other barrier islands in the northern Gulf of Mexico and to identify relationships between the geologic history, present day morphology, and sediment distribution. This report serves as an archive of terrestrial and marine sediment vibracores collected August 4-6 and October 20-22, 2010. Geographic Information System (GIS) data products include marine and terrestrial core locations and 2007 shoreline. Additional files included: marine and terrestrial core description logs, core photos, grain-size analysis, optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating and Carbon-14 dating locations and results, Field Activity Collection System (FACS) logs, and formal Federal Geographic Data Committee (FDGC) metadata (data products and downloads). Purpose: The Marine_Vibracore_Table.xlsx file includes all marine core locations of cores collected around Cat Island, Mississippi in October 2010 by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center. Multiple data types were collected throughout the duration of this project; however, only the results of the sediment component are presented in this archive data series.

Data_Quality_Information: Attribute_Accuracy: Attribute_Accuracy_Report: The positional accuracy of the vibracores is determined by the navigational data for the survey. These vibracore data have not been independently verified for accuracy. Logical_Consistency_Report: These vibracore locations represent the location where marine cores were collected in the field. They represent marine vibracore data coverage for the 2010 Cat Island survey. Completeness_Report: This is a complete processed marine vibracore location file for the field site.
