These cores were originally collected to study nearshore geologic framework. Purpose: The purpose is to disseminate a digital version of a regional map showing the distribution of vibracores collected during 1988 in Long Island Sound aboard the Atlantic Twin as part of a cooperative between New England coastal states and the Minerals Management Service. These cores, which were used to verify interpretations of high-resolution seismic-reflection profiles, can be used to provide useful information about the framework geology in this region.
