Book Synopsis Investigations of Isolated Sand Shoals and Associated Deposits, Virginia Inner Shelf by : Carl Heywood Hobbs
Download or read book Investigations of Isolated Sand Shoals and Associated Deposits, Virginia Inner Shelf written by Carl Heywood Hobbs and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report primarily serves to present minimally interpreted data from a tight spaced set of high-resolution, seismic-reflection, sub-bottom profiles obtained during the summer of 1992. The profiles were run in the inner continental shelf adjacent to Virginia Beach, Virginia as part of an investigation of offshore sounds potentially usable in beach nourishment and hurricane protection projects along Virginia's Atlantic shore south of the mouth of Chesapeake Bay. Figure 1 depicts the general study area. Berquist and Gomillion (1993) presented an interpretation of a small portion of the work. A larger, interpretive report (Hardaway et al., 1995) also utilizes information from this set of sub-bottom profiles. The full set of most recent studies builds upon, amplifies, and modifies the interpretations of a set of earlier works especially, Shideler et al. (1972), Swift et al. (1977), Williams (1987), Dame (1990), Kimball and Dame (1989), Kimball et al. (1991), Chen (1992), and Chen et al. (1995).
Book Synopsis Investigation of Isolated Sand Shoals on the Inner Shelf of Southern Virginia by : Suzette Kimball

This book was released on 1991 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offshore of Sandbridge Beach, Virginia, the surface of the inner continental shelf is a generally featureless, gently sloping plain, broken by several isolated sand shoals. The westernmost shoal, commonly called the Sandbridge Shoal, is located approximately 5.5 km from the shoreline in 1 O - 12 m of water. An analogous feature is located approximately 15 km northeast of the Sandbridge Shoal at depths greater than 15 m. During a pretiminary study conducted in 1987, 534 km of trackline were surveyed with acoustic subbottom and side-scan sonar systems. Geophysical data were recorded for an additional 318 km of trackline between 1988 and 1990. Genetic similarities between the two shoal features were analyzed and conceptual models of development were proposed. In addition to the geophysical data, 11 vibracores with a maximum length of six meters and 18 surface grab samples were acquired. Shell materials in the cores were dated using amino acid racemization and radiocarbon methods. Correlation of seismic data with vibracores and surface grab samples indicate the Sandbridge Shoal is approximately 6 x 8 km in areal extent and has a horseshoe shape in plan view. The shoal contains at least 8 x 107 m3 of clean, well-sorted, medium to coarse sand, and tapers to the north and east. The offshore shoal has a larger areal extent, but its relief above the surrounding seabed is less than half that of the Sandbridge Shoal. Both shoals are associated with large paleochannel systems, and inferred lagoonal or estuarine sediments are located below and landward of the sand bodies. Sediments within the shoals fine downwards, have little evidence of an aeolian overprint, lack high concentrations of heavy minerals, and contain remains of only high-salinity organisms.

Book Synopsis Isolated Shallow Marine Sand Bodies by : Katherine M. Bergman
Download or read book Isolated Shallow Marine Sand Bodies written by Katherine M. Bergman and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Isolated shallow marine sand bodies are significant hydrocarbon reservoirs and understanding sand body genesis and geometry is critical to successful exploration and exploitation of these deposits. Advances in sequence stratigraphy have rekindled and refocused the discussions surrounding these important reservoirs. This volume stems from a research conference that brought together the proponents of the differing interpetation sto discuss facts and principles as they relate to isolated shallow marine sand bodies, using the controversial Lower Campanian Shannon Sandstone as the focus for discussion.

This book was released on 2024-04-19 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yangtze River (Changjiang) and the Red River (Song Hong) that originate in highlands of the Himalayas and Tibetan Plateau, two of the largest rivers in East and Southeast Asia in terms of water and sediment discharge into oceans, play a pivotal role in the global biogeochemical cycle. The Yangtze River Delta is located at the west coast of the East China Sea and the Red River delta at the west coast of the Gulf of Tonkin in the South China Sea. Both were initiated during the early to middle Holocene.

Book Synopsis Habitats and Biota of the Gulf of Mexico: Before the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill by : C. Herb Ward
Download or read book Habitats and Biota of the Gulf of Mexico: Before the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill written by C. Herb Ward and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 917 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY-NC 2.5 license. The Gulf of Mexico is an open and dynamic marine ecosystem rich in natural resources but heavily impacted by human activities, including agricultural, industrial, commercial and coastal development. The Gulf of Mexico has been continuously exposed to petroleum hydrocarbons for millions of years from natural oil and gas seeps on the sea floor, and more recently from oil drilling and production activities located in the water near and far from shore. Major accidental oil spills in the Gulf are infrequent; two of the most significant include the Ixtoc I blowout in the Bay of Campeche in 1979 and the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill in 2010. Unfortunately, baseline assessments of the status of habitats and biota in the Gulf of Mexico before these spills either were not available, or the data had not been systematically compiled in a way that would help scientists assess the potential short-term and long-term effects of such events. This 2-volume series compiles and summarizes thousands of data sets showing the status of habitats and biota in the Gulf of Mexico before the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill. Volume 1 covers: water and sediment quality and contaminants in the Gulf; natural oil and gas seeps in the Gulf of Mexico; coastal habitats, including flora and fauna and coastal geology; offshore benthos and plankton, with an analysis of current knowledge on energy capture and energy flows in the Gulf; and shellfish and finfish resources that provide the basis for commercial and recreational fisheries.

This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book includes six chapters that cover Virginia history from initial settlement through the 20th century plus one that deals with the important role of underwater archaeology. Written by prominent archaeologists with research experience in their respective topic areas, the chapters consider important issues of Virginia history and consider how the discipline of historic archaeology has addressed them and needs to address them . Changes in research strategy over time are discussed , and recommendations are made concerning the need to recognize the diverse and often differing roles and impacts that characterized the different regions of Virginia over the course of its historic past. Significant issues in Virginia history needing greater study are identified.
