Figure 44. Detailed planar view of a scour depression associated with a shipwreck south of Pasque Island from the sidescan sonar mosaic produced during NOAA survey H11076. High backscatter in the scour depression shows that coarser grained sediment is present there; scour asymmetry indicates that net transport is to the west. Location of view is shown in figure 22.
