收藏资源简介：
These data were collected under a cooperative agreement between the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management (CZM) and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Coastal and Marine Geology Program, Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center (WHSC). Initiated in 2003, the primary objective of this program is to develop regional geologic framework information for the management of coastal and marine resources. Accurate data and maps of seafloor geology are important first steps toward protecting fish habitat, delineating marine resources, and assessing environmental changes due to natural or human impacts. The project is focused on the inshore waters of coastal Massachusetts, primarily in water depths of 5 to 30 meters (m) deep. Data collected for the mapping cooperative have been released in a series of USGS Open-File Reports (http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/project-pages/coastal_mass/). The data collected in the study area in Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts, include high-resolution geophysics (bathymetry, backscatter intensity, and seismic reflection) and ground validation (sediment samples, video tracklines, and bottom photographs). The geophysical data are released in USGS Open-File Report 2012-1002, High-Resolution Geophysical Data from the Inner Continental Shelf: Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts (http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2012/1002/). The sampling data have not been prepared for publication yet. The geophysical data were collected during four separate surveys conducted between 2004 and 2011 (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) survey H11319 (in 2004; bathymetry only) and USGS surveys 2009-002-FA, 2010-004-FA, and 2011-004-FA)) and cover 410 square kilometers of the inner continental shelf.

本数据集的数据由马萨诸塞州海岸带管理局（Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management, CZM）与美国地质调查局（U.S. Geological Survey, USGS）海岸与海洋地质项目、伍兹霍尔海岸与海洋科学中心（Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center, WHSC）签署的合作协议采集。该项目于2003年启动，核心目标为开发区域地质框架信息，以支撑海岸与海洋资源管理工作。精准的海底地质数据与地图，是保护鱼类栖息地、划定海洋资源范围、评估自然或人为活动引发的环境变化的首要关键步骤。本项目聚焦马萨诸塞州沿海近岸水域，作业水深主要介于5至30米之间。 本次制图合作采集的数据已通过一系列USGS公开文件报告对外发布（http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/project-pages/coastal_mass/）。其中，马萨诸塞州巴泽兹湾研究区域采集的数据包含两类：高分辨率地球物理数据（水深地形、反向散射强度与地震反射数据），以及地面验证数据（沉积物样品、视频测线与海底照片）。地球物理数据已发布于USGS 2012年公开文件报告2012-1002《内大陆架高分辨率地球物理数据：马萨诸塞州巴泽兹湾》（http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2012/1002/），而采样数据尚未完成出版筹备工作。 本次地球物理数据采集于2004年至2011年间的四次独立勘测：美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA）H11319号勘测（2004年，仅采集水深地形数据），以及USGS的2009-002-FA、2010-004-FA与2011-004-FA号勘测，整体覆盖410平方千米的内大陆架区域。 如需了解巴泽兹湾项目所属各USGS勘测的更多详情，可访问WHSC野外活动网页： 2009-002-FA：http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2009-002-FA 2010-004-FA：http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2010-004-FA 2011-004-FA：http://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/operations/ia/public_ds_info.php?fa=2011-004-FA 有关NOAA H11319号勘测的信息可通过以下链接获取： http://surveys.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/NOS/coast/H10001-H12000/H11319/DR/
