Acoustic Geology Of A Portion Of Virginia's Innermost Continental Shelf, Carl H. Hobbs Iii Jan 1990

Acoustic Geology Of A Portion Of Virginia's Innermost Continental Shelf, Carl H. Hobbs Iii

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

Side-scan sonography of the innermost continental shelf between Cape Henry and the Virginia-North Carolina border depicts a relatively typical inner shelf bottom generally characterized by medium density, meso-scale roughness. Subbottom acoustic protiles depict the stratigraphy as a Tertiary age basement separated from Quatenary-age deposits by a regional, angular(?) unconformity. Holocene-age sediments form a discontinuous layer above another unconformity. The area's topography appears to be a function of the presence of the modern sediments.
