Figure 13. Detailed planar view of exposed bedrock from the digital terrain model produced from bathymetric data collected during National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration survey H11997. Glacially smoothed bedrock ridges parallel similar features and glacial striations onshore (Goldsmith, 1962); strike ridges parallel those of the onshore Avalon Terrane. Location of view is shown in figure 12.
