Backscatter Data Map

Laura Brothers, USGS, pointing to the map of the backscatter data that's collected.

The USGS returned from a seafloor data mapping mission offshore of the Delmarva Peninsula (Ocean City, MD) on July 25th, 2014. The data collected is foundational to our continued understanding of coastal change, vulnerabilities, and making our coastal communities more resilient to coastal hazards and climate change.
