U. S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 01-076 - Holocene Evolution of the Southern Washington and Northern Oregon Shelf and Coast: Geologic Discussion and GIS Data Release

This Open-File Report presents the data and results of the component of the Southwest Washington Coastal Erosion study that mapped the distribution and thickness of Holocene aged sediment in the CLRC. The results are presented in both paper form and digitally on the CD-ROM. Data includes seismic-reflection data from the continental shelf, boreholes from the barriers, dune ridge ages from the barriers, and borehole and seismic-reflection data from the bays and lower Columbia River

U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 00-167 - Sidescan-sonar imagery, surface sediment samples, and surficial geologic interpretation of the southwestern Washington inner continental shelf based on data collected during Corliss cruises 97007 and 98014

This Open-File report discusses the geologic findings and data collected during field work in 1997 and 1998. GIS data released on this publication includes interpretations, sediment sample locations, seafloor photographs, and sidescan sonar swath imagery.

U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 00-448 - Non-navigational GRIDDED BATHYMETRY DATA Washington-Oregon Coast: 1926-1998 Data release and description of methods

Sixteen digital bathymetric surface models (grids) of the seafloor off the coast of Washington and Oregon were created for wave modeling experiments along the coast of Washington. Surfaces were created for two areas over two time periods. This Open-File Report released those datasets, and describes the data sets used and the methodology and techniques applied to create the historical and modern bathymetric surfaces.
