Torresan, M.E., Hampton, M.A., Gowen, M.H., Barber, Jr., J.H., Zink, L.L., Chase, T.E., Wong, F.L., Gann, J.T., and Dartnell, P., 1995, Final report: acoustic mapping of dredged material disposal sites and deposits in Mamala Bay, Honolulu, Hawaii: U.S. Geological Survey Open-file Report 95-17.
Figure 8. A 3.5ÐkHz profile from line 5 across the eastern portion of the former Honolulu Harbor disposal site showing undulating bedforms. The bedforms start within the eastern most edge of the highÐbackscatter feature associated with the former Honolulu Harbor disposal site. The mounds extend east nearly 2 km beyond the highÐbackscatter deposit into the lowÐbackscatter seafloor, thus suggesting that the mounds result from natural rather than anthropogenic processes.
