Description:
Abstract:
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (CT DEEP), is producing detailed geologic maps of the coastal sea floor. Bathymetry and sidescan-sonar imagery, originally collected by NOAA for charting purposes, provide a fundamental framework for research and management activities in Long Island Sound, shows the composition and terrain of the seabed, and provides information on sediment transport and benthic habitat. During April-May 2009 NOAA completed hydrographic survey H12013 offshore of the entrance to the Connecticut River, and during November 2009 and April 2010 bottom photographs and surficial sediment data were acquired as part of two ground-truth reconnaissance surveys of this area. Two interpretive data layers were derived from the multibeam echo-sounder and the ground-truth data used to verify them. For more information on the ground-truth surveys see: <http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2009-059-FA> and <http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2010-010-FA>
Purpose:
To release an interpretation of bottom features based on bathymetry data collected during NOAA survey H12013 and sediment samples and bottom photography collected during USGS surveys 2009-059-FA and 2010-010-FA off the entrance to the Connecticut River in eastern Long Island Sound, in a geographic, WGS84 coordinate system. These data can be used to provide information on surface geology and sedimentary processes.

Source_Currentness_Reference:
Ground condition, however, calendar date is for the bottom samples and photography. Multibeam bathymetry used in the interpretation were collected during 20090418 to 20090517.
Source_Contribution:
The original acoustic data (multibeam bathymetry and sidescan sonar) acquired during NOAA survey H12013 aboard the NOAA ship Thomas Jefferson and the portion of the sediment samples and bottom photography collected during USGS surveys 2009-059-FA and 2010-010-FA that fall within the study area. Historical grain-size data used in the interpretation are from Poppe and others (1998).
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
GeoTIFF images of the multibeam bathymetry and sidescan data from survey H12013 and the point data layer from grain-size analyses of sediments collected from this survey area were imported into the ArcView 3.3 GIS project view. Bottom features were interpreted based on geomorphology and relief in the bathymetry, backscatter in the sidescan sonar data, and on the bottom photography and textural analyses. The individually interpreted features (rocky, sand waves, and megaripples) were outlined using the available graphic tools then converted to an ESRI shapefile using ArcView 3.3. Polygons were were traced and union and subtraction edits were conducted at scales of 1:3,500 to 1:5,500. Use of this interpretation datalayer is not recommended at scales of less than 1:24,000.
