Surficial Geology and Analysis of post-impoundment sediment of Lake Mohave
Open-File Report 2004-1256

Figure 12. Chirp profile image from a location of low acoustic backscatter showing possible post-impoundment deposition in the pre-impoundment Colorado River channel (A). Location of figure 12A is shown in figure 4C. Chirp profile B shows a possible post-impoundment mass-wasting deposit located near the mouth of Eldorado Canyon at Nelson's Landing. Location is shown in figure 3C, figure 4A, and figure 9A. Depth is depth from lake level at the time of the survey assuming a sound velocity of 1500 m/s.
