Detailed Description

Example 2-dimensional chirp profile offshore of the Gulf Islands National Seashore (GUIS) shows many morphologic and subsurface features. Pleistocene lowstand fluvial deposits are overlain by estuarine-marine sediments deposited during subsequent sea-level rise. These sediments are in turn overlain by Late Holocene sandsheets and shoals.
