| Overview FGBNMS | |
| bounds wstglf | Location map of the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sancutary in the Northwestern Gulf of Mexico. |
| FGB interp | Shaded relief maps of the East & West Flower Garden Banks overlain by the sea-floor type interpretation based on multibeam backscatter, multibeam bathymetry and sediment grab samples. |
| FGB_xih | Sediment type analysis of samples from the Flower Garden Banks region. The sample locations are overlayed on the bottom interpretation and multibeam bathymetry based shaded relief. |
| FGB_cih | CaCO3 analysis of samples from the Flower Garden Banks region. The sample locations are overlayed on the bottom interpretation and multibeam bathymetry based shaded relief. |
