Figure 4.10. Seismic-reflection profile showing three small channels cut into glacial-marine sediment in the central part of the study area. The transgressive unconformity (red line) is eroded into the upper surface of fluvial deposits and locally overlain by a sheet of sandy marine sediment generally less than 1 m thick. See Figure 4.3 for location. A constant seismic velocity of 1500 m/s through water, sediment, and rock was used to convert from two-way travel time to depth.
