These lineaments are thought to reflect structures in the crust that may be related to earthquake generation or control of earthquake location. The broad Paducah gravity lineament trends southeast across the SW corner of the map area. Hildenbrand and others (1996) have interpreted that the lineament represents numerous upper-crustal mafic intrustions. Within and west of the map area, small earthquakes are aligned with the NE edge of the lineament and their abundance decreases abruptly NE across the edge. The Commerce geophysical lineament trends NE across the map area. Langenheim and Hildenbrand (1997) attribute the lineament to a mafic dike swarm of unknown age. Topographic lineaments, Quaternary offsets on mapped faults, igneous intrusions, and a few earthquakes align along the lineament. The south-central magnetic lineament trends NW across the center of the map area and extends far beyond the map area in both directions. Hildenbrand and others (1996) interpret the lineament as a 40 km wide zone of high susceptibility intrusions of intermediate composition and probable Pc age. Heigold and Kolata (1993)suggest that the lineament may represent Precambrian Proterozoic terrane boundary. Seismicity south of the lineament (Reelfoot Rift) is greater than seismicity north of the boundary (Wabash Valley), but this boundary is located further to the south and trends more northerly than the south- central magnetic lineament. Present evidence implies that this lineament is the least likely to be causally related to modern seismicity. 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 at http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1995/0574/ Time_Period_of_Content: Time_Period_Information: Range_of_Dates/Times: Beginning_Date: 1995 Ending_Date: 1997 Currentness_Reference: cover contains locations of all published lineaments Status: Progress: complete Maintenance_and_Update_Frequency: none planned Spatial_Domain: Bounding_Coordinates: West_Bounding_Coordinate: -89 East_Bounding_Coordinate: -87 North_Bounding_Coordinate: 39 South_Bounding_Coordinate: 36.5 Keywords: Theme: Theme_Keyword_Thesaurus: USGS Thesaurus Theme_Keyword: geology Theme_Keyword: lineation (geology) Theme_Keyword: geospatial datasets Theme: Theme_Keyword_Thesaurus: none Theme_Keyword: gravity lineament Theme_Keyword: magnetic lineament Place: Place_Keyword_Thesaurus: none Place_Keyword: Wabash Valley Theme: Theme_Keyword_Thesaurus: National Geologic Map Database Catalog themes, augmented Theme_Keyword: 1200 - Geophysics Theme: Theme_Keyword_Thesaurus: ISO 19115 Topic Categories Theme_Keyword: geoscientificInformation Place: Place_Keyword_Thesaurus: Augmented FIPS 10-4 and FIPS 6-4 Place_Keyword: f17121 = Marion Place_Keyword: f17025 = Clay Place_Keyword: f17159 = Richland Place_Keyword: f17101 = Lawrence Place_Keyword: f17185 = Wabash Place_Keyword: f17047 = Edwards Place_Keyword: f17191 = Wayne Place_Keyword: f17081 = Jefferson Place_Keyword: f17055 = Franklin Place_Keyword: f17065 = Hamilton Place_Keyword: f17193 = White Place_Keyword: f17059 = Gallatin Place_Keyword: f17165 = Saline Place_Keyword: f17199 = Williamson Place_Keyword: f17087 = Johnson Place_Keyword: f17151 = Pope Place_Keyword: f17069 = Hardin Place_Keyword: f17127 = Massac Place_Keyword: f17153 = Pulaski Place_Keyword: f21007 = Ballard Place_Keyword: f21145 = McCracken Place_Keyword: f21039 = Carlisle Place_Keyword: f21105 = Hickman Place_Keyword: f21075 = Fulton Place_Keyword: f21083 = Graves Place_Keyword: f21035 = Calloway Place_Keyword: f21157 = Marshall Place_Keyword: f21139 = Livingston Place_Keyword: f21055 = Crittenden Place_Keyword: f21143 = Lyon Place_Keyword: f21033 = Caldwell Place_Keyword: f21221 = Trigg Place_Keyword: f21047 = Christian Place_Keyword: f21219 = Todd Place_Keyword: f21177 = Muhlenberg Place_Keyword: f21107 = Hopkins Place_Keyword: f21233 = Webster Place_Keyword: f21225 = Union Place_Keyword: f21101 = Henderson Place_Keyword: f21059 = Daviess Place_Keyword: f21149 = McLean Place_Keyword: f21183 = Ohio Place_Keyword: f21141 = Logan Place_Keyword: f47161 = Stewart Place_Keyword: f47125 = Montgomery Place_Keyword: f47147 = Robertson Place_Keyword: f18129 = Posey Place_Keyword: f18163 = Vanderburgh Place_Keyword: f18173 = Warrick Place_Keyword: f18147 = Spencer Place_Keyword: f18037 = Dubois Place_Keyword: f18125 = Pike Place_Keyword: f18051 = Gibson Place_Keyword: f18083 = Knox Place_Keyword: f18027 = Daviess Access_Constraints: none Use_Constraints: none Point_of_Contact: Contact_Information: Contact_Person_Primary: Contact_Person: Susan Rhea Contact_Organization: US Geological Survey Contact_Position: Geophysicist Contact_Address: Address_Type: mailing address Address: MS966, Box 25046, Federal Center City: Denver State_or_Province: CO Postal_Code: 80225 Country: USA Contact_Voice_Telephone: 303-273-8639 Contact_Facsimile_Telephone: 303-273-8600 Contact_Electronic_Mail_Address: rhea@usgs.gov Contact_Instructions: email is the best way to make contact Data_Set_Credit: Hildenbrand Native_Data_Set_Environment: SunOS, 5.5.1, sun4u UNIX, ARC/INFO version 7.1.1 Cross_Reference: Citation_Information: Originator: Wheeler, R.L., Rhea, Susan, Diehl, S.F., Drahovzal, J.A., Bear, G.W., and Sargent, M.L.
