This is a project to process and interpret two seismic                  reflection lines and two sonobuoy reversed refraction profiles                  using state of the art techniques.  Data is from the continental                shelf and slope off southern central California.  The hope is to                produce an image  and velocity-depth profile beneath the Santa                  Maria Basin in order to determine how deep reflections beneath                  the continental slope are related to those beneath the coast and                to determine how far the Pacific plate extends beneath the North                American margin.                                                                %%%                                                                                     Seismic reflection and refraction studies of the type to be             carried out in this project can help elucidate the detailed                     structure of continental margins and can help constrain models of               their geological evolution.  This is important because                          continental margins are important areas of hydrocarbon formation                and preservation as well as for mineral resources.
