SEG-Y format of boomer seismic-reflection profiles collected in the Pulley Ridge study area 2001

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: September 08, 2025 | Last Modified: 20200908
These seismic data were collected to infer the paleodepositional environment of Pulley Ridge through seismic facies analysis. Without actual rock cores, remote sensing is the next best tool. It was uncertain if Pulley Ridge represented a drowned reef or paleoshoreline. Through seismic imaging, it was determined from the high-amplitude, level-bedded nature of material in the sub-surface that Pulley Ridge represents several stages of barrier-island development.
