Seismotectonic maps in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley, Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky - Digital Spatial Database: Gravity and aeromagnetic surveying and modeling lines

Lines in this cover show where gravity oe aeromagnetic data have been modelled to constrain subsurface structure. Gravity and magnetic signatures result from deep structure, such as might be at hypocentral depths of earthquakes. We show only the lines for

Seismotectonic maps in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley, Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky - Digital Spatial Database: Locations of stress orientations

NOTE: Location of one point, near -88.65, 38.95, was incorrect when Sheet A was published. The location is .5 degree south, and is corrected in this dataset. This cover contains locations of places where greatest horizontal compressive stress (S(Hmax)) o

Seismotectonic maps in the vicinity of the lower Wabash Valley, Illinois, Indiana, and Kentucky - Digital Spatial Database: Magnetotelluric sounding points and modelling lines

Magnetotelluric soundings give data that can help define the l electricamagnetic properties of rocks, and with other geophysical data help define the structure of the shallow crust where earthquakes occur. The sounding points in this cover show where data
