  • 1980 MAPS SHOWING GEOLOGY and SHALLOW STRUCTURE of EASTERN RHODE ISLAND SOUND and VINEYARD SOUND, MASSACHUSETTS Charles J. O'har
    MAPS SHOWING GEOLOGY AND SHALLOW STRUCTURE OF EASTERN RHODE ISLAND SOUND AND VINEYARD SOUND, MASSACHUSETTS Charles J. O'Hara and Robert N. Oldale U.S. Geological Survey Miscellaneous Field Studies Map MF-1186 1980 INTRODUCTION This report presents results of marine studies conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) during the summers of 1975 and 1976 in eastern Rhode Island Sound and Vineyard Sound (fig. 1) located off the southeastern coast of Massachusetts. The study was made in cooperation with the Massachusetts Department of Public Works and the New England Division of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It covered an area of the Atlantic Inner Continental Shelf between latitude 41° 12' and 41° 33'N, and between longitude 70° 37' and 71° 15'W (see index map). Major objectives included assessment of sand and gravel resources, environmental impact evaluation both of offshore mining of these resources and of offshore disposal of solid waste and dredge spoil material, identification and mapping of the offshore geology, and determination of the geologic history of this part of the Inner Shelf. A total of 670 kilometers (km) of closely spaced high- resolution seismic-reflection profiles, 224 km of side-scan sonar data, and 16 cores totaling 90 meters (m) of recovered sediment, were collected during the investigation. This report is companion to geologic maps published for Cape Cod Bay (Oldale and O'Hara, 1975) and Buzzards Bay, Mass. (Robb and Oldale, 1977). ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The authors are indebted to the staffs of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), the Marine Biological Laboratory, and the Marine Science Consortium for their cooperation in the use of their research vessels.
