Digital data for depth to basement in the deep-sea basins of the Pacific continental margin (cowbsm) based on data collected in 1984. sidescansonar Digital vector data for the contours of depth to basement for the deep-sea basins of the Pacific continental margin offshore of Washington, Oregon, and California. The data were interpreted from GLORIA (Paskevich and others, 2011) sidescan data and related seismic-reflection data. The data were published as USGS maps in paper format (Gardner and others, 1992, 1993a, 1993b). Muriel Grim
