Abstract:

Scientists from the United States Geological Survey, St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, U.S. Geological Survey Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center, and students from the University of Hawaii at Manoa collected sediment cores, sediment surface grab samples, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) data from within the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge-Holgate Unit located on the southern end of Long Beach Island, New Jersey, in April 2015 (FAN 2015-611-FA). The study's objective was to identify washover deposits in the stratigraphic record to aid in understanding barrier island evolution. This report is an archive of GPR and DGPS data collected from Long Beach Island in 2015. Data products, including raw GPR and processed DGPS data, elevation corrected GPR profiles, and accompanying Federal Geographic Data Committee metadata can be downloaded from the Data Downloads page.

Purpose:

The data were collected as part of the Barrier Island and Estuarine Wetland Change Assessment (BIWC) (https://coastal.er.usgs.gov/sandy-wetland-assessment/). The primary goal of the BIWC project is to quantify the physical changes that storm processes have on barrier-island wetlands and marsh ecosystems.

Supplemental_Information:

Data were collected during USGS field activity number (FAN) 2015-611-FA, additional survey details are available at https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=2015-611-FA.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report: No formal attribute accuracy tests were conducted.

Logical_Consistency_Report: No formal logical accuracy tests were conducted.
Completeness_Report:

A total of 41 GPR lines, representing a linear distance of approximately 5.9 kilometers, were acquired during field activity 2015-611-FA.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Location information associated with each GPR line was determined by postprocessed differential correction using a continuously operating reference stations/rover setup. Briefly, the field setup consisted of one (rover) Ashtech ProFlex Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver, collecting raw GNSS data, at 5 Hertz (Hz).

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

During acquisition of various lines, the signal between the GPS rover unit and multiple satellites was interrupted or lost. This lack of communication with the satellites caused either incorrect values or unreliable GPS data to be recorded. Lines 218-221 have non-elevation corrected profile images associated with each line.

Lineage:

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

GPR processing: The GPR data were processed using Sandmeier Scientific Software's Reflexw Version 7.2.2 geophysical near surface processing and interpretation software (http://www.sandmeier-geo.de/reflexw.html). Each GPR data file was imported into Reflex and converted from Radan’s proprietary DZT (.dzt) format to a .dat file, this file was exported in ASCII format. Next, a variety of processing steps were used, primarily applying static correction, subtracting-mean (dewow), removing header gain, and applying user-defined gains. After these initial processing steps, the GPS and elevation data were integrated into the trace headers, except for files 218-221. Lastly, all profiles were inspected for data quality to ensure no navigation or trace data gaps were present before the final profile images were output in JPEG format (available for download at pubs.usgs.gov/ds/1006/downloads/2014-611-FA_GPR_Images.zip). If any issues were discovered during the QA/QC process, this information was noted for each affected line and recorded in the metadata. A velocity of 0.09 m/ns was used to calculate and display depth on the elevation-corrected profiles.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Navigation processing: During acquisition, uncorrected real-time rover positions were output as an NMEA GGA string at a 9600 baud rate to an external GPS Acumen data logger [puck] and saved as a .plt file. Data were imported into Radan 7 (GSSI proprietary GPR software) and exported as a KML file. The GGA string data were imported into GrafNav 8.5 and post-processed to the surrounding Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) sites. Once processing was completed, the GGA string was exported and converted to a .txt file.
