Description:

Abstract:

A geophysical survey to delineate the fresh-saline groundwater interface and associated sub-bottom sedimentary structures beneath Indian River Bay, Delaware, was carried out in April 2010. This included surveying at higher spatial resolution in the vicinity of a study site at Holts Landing, where intensive onshore and offshore studies were subsequently completed. The total length of continuous resistivity profiling (CRP) survey lines was 145 kilometers (km), with 36 km of chirp seismic lines surveyed around the perimeter of the bay. Medium-resolution CRP surveying was performed using a 50-meter streamer in a bay-wide grid. Results of the surveying and data inversion showed the presence of many buried paleochannels beneath Indian River Bay that generally extended perpendicular from the shoreline in areas of modern tributaries, tidal creeks, and marshes. An especially wide and deep paleochannel system was imaged in the southeastern part of the bay near White Creek. Many paleochannels also had high-resistivity anomalies corresponding to low-salinity groundwater plumes associated with them, likely due to the presence of fine-grained estuarine mud and peats in the channel fills that act as submarine confining units. Where present, these units allow plumes of low-salinity groundwater that was recharged onshore to move beyond the shoreline, creating a complex fresh-saline groundwater interface in the subsurface. The properties of this interface are important considerations in construction of accurate coastal groundwater flow models. These models are required to help predict how nutrient-rich groundwater, recharged in agricultural watersheds such as this one, makes its way into coastal bays and impacts surface water quality and estuarine ecosystems. For more information on the survey conducted for this project, see https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=2010-006-FA.

Purpose:

The purpose of this dataset is to provide the calibrated route polyline for the seismic-reflection profiles collected on USGS Field Activity 2010-006-FA. These lines are calibrated based on shot number so that using the route identifier tool allows the user to find the location of a specific shot on any seismic trackline. This helps correlate the seismic-reflection profiles with other GIS data available in the area.

All of the shot point navigation from this cruise was incorporated in this shapefile.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

The navigation system used was a Lowrance 480M with an LGC-2000 Global Positioning System (GPS) antenna. The antenna was located above the seismic towfish tow point. The system towfish was attached by a short line to a cleat on a 2 x 6 board that was clamped across the bow of the boat. The towfish was on the starboard side of the boat, approximately 0.5 meters below the water surface. GPS data are assumed to be accurate within 10 meters on this survey.

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Although bathymetry was not recorded directly with this system, bathymetry can be derived by tracing the seafloor reflector in the seismic-reflection profiles. The seismic towfish was attached to a cleat by a short line on the starboard side of the boat. The transducer draft was approximately 0.5 m below the water surface. The draft offset was not included in the data acquisition.

Lineage:

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

The seismic acquisition system used on this cruise was an EdgeTech 424 Chirp sub-bottom system with a 4 to 24 kHz pulse bandwidth and a 2 ms pulse. The system towfish was attached by a short line to a cleat on a 2 x 6 board that was clamped across the bow of the boat. The towfish was on the starboard side of the boat, approximately 0.5 meters below the water surface. The acquisition software used to record the data was Discover 3100 version 7.01. The data were recorded in the SEG-Y data format IBM floating point with navigation supplied by the Lowrance GPS system. The navigation was recorded in the header of the seismic data in an arc second format. The record length is 133 ms, with a sample interval of 23 micro-seconds and 5788 samples per trace. The fire-rate was between 4 and 6 shots per second. The GPS antenna was located above the tow position of the seismic transducer.

The shapefile of the unique shot navigation, available from https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2011/1039/html/ofr2011-1039-catalog.html, is the basis for this polyline shapefile. Using VACExtras v. 2.1 - VAC Extras - FeatConv - Points to Lines v2, convert the points to polylines. The attribute used as the unique line identifier is "linename". Also transferred were the first occurrence and last occurrence of "shot", "year", and "jdtime" to the output shapefile - ir_seisnav_lns.shp.

Then the route was calibrated so the measurement units along the route are seismic shot numbers. Using ArcMap 9.2 - ArcToolbox - Linear Referencing Tools - Calibrate Routes. The following parameters were used: input - ir_Routes; route identifier field - linename; input point feature - ir_seisnav; point identifier field - linename; measure field - shot; output route feature class - ir_Routes_Calib.shp; measure calculation method - distance; search radius - 1 meter. Rest of the options left to their default values (checked).

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

With the route calibrated, it's possible to extract information for the "measurement" information at a particular interval. In this case, the goal was to extract a point at the beginning and end of each line, as well as at a 100 shot interval. To do this, hatches were added to the calibrated route using ArcMap 9.2 by opening the layer properties and selecting the Hatches tab. Created a marker hatch interval of 100 for the Hatch Class, then for Hatch Def(1) placed a marker hatch every 1 hatch interval. From the Hatch Class - Add a Hatch Definition - Add End Hatch Definition - and set these to a marker Hatch. By displaying the labels for both Hatch Definitions, a quick comparison between the hatches and shot navigation made sure things are behaving as intended, then turned the labels off. What was left was simply the markers for the start and end of line, as well as a mark at the even 100 shot intervals.

Within the attribute table of the calibrated polyline shapefile, the following attributes were added: shot, year, jdtime, shot_end, jdtime_end. The calibrated polyline shapefile was then joined to the ir_seisnav_lns polyline shapefile based on the attribute "linename". This join was performed by right mouse click on ir_Routes_Calib - joins and relates - join. With the attributes of ir_seisnav now part of the ir_Routes_Calib attribute table, field calculator was used to populate the newly created attributes in the route shapefile based on the information in the ir_seisnav_lns attribute table.

Process_Description:

Edits to the metadata were made to fix any errors that MP v 2.9.36 flagged. This is necessary to enable the metadata to be successfully harvested for various data catalogs. In some cases, this meant adding text "Information unavailable" or "Information unavailable from original metadata" for those required fields that were left blank. Other minor edits were probably performed (title, publisher, publication place, etc.). Attempted to modify http to https where appropriate. Moved the minimal source information provided to make it the first process step. The metadata date (but not the metadata creator) was edited to reflect the date of these changes. The metadata available from a harvester may supersede metadata bundled within a download file. Compare the metadata dates to determine which metadata file is most recent.

Overview_Description:

Entity_and_Attribute_Overview:

In order to effectively utilize the "hotlink" attribute in ArcGIS, the user must follow a couple of steps. First, the user must open the Layer Properties of the shapefile within ArcMap - select the Display tab - and click on the check box next to "Support Hyperlinks using field:" and the field selected from the dropdown menu needs to be "hotlink". The hyperlink is set to a document. Additionally, a hyperlink base must be supplied in the ArcMap document (mxd) to complete the full path to the images. This is accomplished from File - Document Properties. On the Summary tab there is a section for "hyperlink base". The text supplied here needs to be the disk information preceding "data" in the full path to the image. If the data are being read from a DVD, this would be the drive letter such as F\.
