Wong Publication_Date: 2009 Title: Thickness of younger bay mud, San Francisco Bay, California (sfmudthk) Edition: Version 1.0, June 16, 2009 Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data Online_Linkage: http://walrus.wr.usgs.gov/coastal_processes/sfbaycoastalsys/data/ Description: Abstract: Thickness contours (in feet) of younger bay mud scanned and digitized from "Plate 4. Thicknesses of younger bay mud" (Goldman, 1969). Purpose: These data are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public. The data can be used with geographic information systems (GIS) software to display geologic and oceanographic information.
