Funding and/or support for this study were provided by the USGS Coastal and Marine Geology Program (CMGP) and Coastal Carolina University. We thank Suzanne Cochran of the USGS in St. Petersburg, Florida, for her field support during boomer and sidescan data collection and Paul Gayes, M. Scott Harris, Neil Gielstra, and Jim Ladd of CCU for their work during the vibracoring portion of this cruise. We are grateful to R/V G.K. Gilbert Captain Keith A. Ludwig of the USGS in St. Petersburg, Florida, for his assistance in data collection. This document was improved by the reviews of Robert A. Morton and Christina A. Kellogg of the USGS in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Marine seismic reflection data are used to image and map sedimentary and structural features of the seafloor and subsurface. These data are useful in mapping stratigraphy and in assessing other submarine geologic characteristics and features. These data were collected in cooperation with Coastal Carolina University (CCU) as part of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Coastal Change and Transport (CCT) Project.
Are there legal restrictions on access or use of the data?Access_Constraints: None. These data are held in the public domain.
Use_Constraints:The U.S. Geological Survey requests to be acknowledged as the originator of the data in future products or derivative research.
