Interpretation of the elevation of the base of the Holocene ravinement derived from seismic data collected within the new York Bight by the U.S. Geological Survey, 1995 - 1998 (Grid, UTM Zone 18N, WGS84 and Esri polyline shapefile, Geographic, WGS84)
Description
These data orginate from interpretations of seismic
reflection profile data. The derivative data are in a grid
format and are intended to represent the elevation of the
Holocene Ravinement surface throughout the inner-continental
shelf within the New York Bight. The gridded elevation of
the Holocene Ravinement is helpful in understanding the
stratigraphic evolution of the inner-continental shelf, the
regional sediment transport system, and the influence of the
inner-shelf framework on coastal processes. The grid showing
elevation of the Holocene Ravinment is an important factor
in the framework of the coastal region.
