Folds--Offshore of Point Conception Map Area, California

This part of DS 781 presents data for the geologic and geomorphic map of the Offshore of Point Conception Map Area, California. The vector data file is included in "Folds_OffshorePointConception.zip," which is accessible from https://doi.org/10.5066/F7QN64XQ. In the offshore part of the map area, closely-spaced seismic-reflection profiles image many shallow, west-northwest striking folds that have variable geometry, length, amplitude, continuity, and wavelength. The Government Point syncline is the most prominent fold; the axis of this structure has been mapped onshore at Point Conception and extends into the offshore both to the west and east with a cumulative length of more than 22 km. Local thickening of post-LGM sediment along [...]
