Description

This report consists of high-resolution chirp and single-channel Sparker seismic-reflection- profile data from the Santa Barbara Channel, California. These data were acquired in 2007 using the Research Vessel Zephyr2 (USGS Cruise ID: Z-3-07-SC) and the Research Vessel Parke Snavely (USGS Cruise ID: S-7-08-SC). The data are available in binary, TIFF and JPEG image formats. Binary data are in Society of Exploration Geologists (SEG) SEG-Y format and may be downloaded for further processing or display. Reference maps and JPEG images of the profiles may be viewed with your Web browser. For more information on the seismic surveys see http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/z/z307sc/html/z-3-07-sc.meta.html and http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/infobank/s/s708sc/html/s-7-08-sc.meta.html These data are also available via GeoMapApp (http://www.geomapapp.org/) and Virtual Ocean (http://www.virtualocean.org/) earth science exploration and visualization applications.
