    Description:
      Abstract:
        This cover includes seismic reflection lines that have geophysical
        cross-sectional interpretations constraining subsurface structures
        that may penetrate to hypocentral depths.  Lines were gathered from
        theses, dissertations, and publications.

      Purpose:
        The data was generated to help in understanding the seismotectonic hazards
        in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley. This data complements similar
        data collected in the vicinity of New Madrid, MO
        (US Geological Survey Open-File Report 95-0574, available via ftp at
        <ftp://greenwood.cr.usgs.gov/pub/open-file-reports/ofr-95-0574>)

        Process_Description:
          The length and orientation of seismic reflection line P-2 is inferred from
          the center of a circle shown on a small-scale index map (Figure 3) from Heigold
          and Kolata (1993).

          Lines AB, AD, BC, DG, EF, FH, IH, and KJ were digitized from the locations
          of shotpoints from a large folded map in Rudman (1963).

          Lines Posey-White Co N and S and Gallatin Co were digitized from Figure 2
          in Bear and others (1997).

          The Barnes Creek line was plotted from latitude and longitude data provided
          by John L. Sexton (written communication, 1995).

          Latitude and longitude data for the COCORP lines, IL-1 and IN-1, were
          downloaded from Cornell University's website (http:www.geo.cornell.edu/).

          Lines Webster Co, Union Co., Pope Co., and Muhlenberg Co. were derived
          from figures in Bertagne and Leising (1991).

          The Grayville, New Harmony, and Hamilton Co. line locations were digitized
          from Figure 3 of Sexton and others (1986).

          Lines RS1 to RS3 were digitized from data that was transferred from Figure
          2 of Rene and Stanonis (1995), onto 7 1/2' topographic maps.

          Lines HO5 to HO9 were digitized from Figure 12-1 in Heigold and Oltz (1991).

          The Hicks Do,e line was digitized from an index map of Potter and others
          (1995), and then adjusted by eye.

          reflec_all was clipped to create reflec.
