Abstract
The Maryland Geological Survey conducted a two year investigation of the shallow geological framework and near surface geochemical character of the sediments of Assawoman and Isle of Wight Bays located along Maryland's Atlantic coast. This report presents the results of the second year study which focused on the physical and chemical characteristics of the surficial sediments of Assawoman and Isle of Wight Bays. The objectives of the second year study were:
- To map the chemical and sedimentological characteristics of the surficial sediments;
- To delineate the vertical stratigraphic sequence of Assawoman and Isle of Wight Bays.
