Summary

Towed and floating transient electromagnetic (tTEM and FloaTEM) data were acquired within the Mississippi Alluvial plain during March and October 2018. During the land-based tTEM and water-borne FloaTEM surveys, approximately 51 total line-kilometers were collected using the tTEM system near Shellmound and Vicksburg, and approximately 274 line kilometers were collected using the FloaTEM system on Eutah Bend Lake, Little Tallahatchie River, Sunflower River, and the Ouachita River. Data were collected by members of the U.S. Geological Survey, Hydrogeophysics Branch and Lower Mississippi Gulf Water Science Center offices, and the HydroGeophysics Group at Aarhus University in Denmark. tTEM and FloaTEM data at these sites in Mississippi [...]

Purpose

These data were collected to field test a new towed and floating transient electromagnetic data collection system and contribute high-resolution information about subsurface geologic structure that can be used to delineate aquifer materials for water-resource investigations, and to inform hydrogeologic models.
