Perspective view of Long Beach Shelf south of San Pedro Bay

Return to San Pedro Bay Perspective Views

Figure 5b. Same perspective view of continental shelf as in Figure 5a but in this view the seafloor image is backscatter draped over bathymetry; reds and oranges are high backscatter, blues and greens are low backscatter. High-backscatter outcrops occur on the seafloor southeast of Palos Verdes Peninsula; linear depressions (see Figure 3) occur on the lower right of image.
