This data set includes the locations, identifiers, grain-size ananlysis, and carbonate concentration of the coarse fraction for surficial sediments collected at 133 stations along the Delmarva Peninsula. The sediments were collected with a modified Van Veen grab on the mid-sized SEABed Observation and Sampling System (SEABOSS, SEABOSS Mark II configuration) during USGS survey 2014-002-FA, aboard the M/V Scarlett Isabella. This data set was collected to ground-truth (verify) the acoustic data sets that were acquired early during the same survey (2014-002-FA). Bottom photographs were also taken at each station occupied by the SEABOSS (see shapefile 2014_002_FA_Photos.shp). Samples were analyzed in the sediment laboratory at the USGS Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center.
