    The Chesapeake Bay Crater: Geology and Geophysics of a Late Eocene Submarine Impact Structure

    The Chesapeake Bay Crater: Geology and Geophysics of a Late Eocene Submarine Impact Structure By Dr. C. Wylie Poag, Dr. Christian Koeberl, Dr. Wolf Uwe Reimold (auth.)
    2004 | 523 Pages | ISBN: 3642623476 | PDF | 25 MB


    This volume synthesizes 16 years of geological and geophysical studies that document an 85-km-wide impact crater buried 500 m beneath Chesapeake Bay in southeastern Virginia, USA. The authors integrate extensive seismic reflection profiling and deep core drilling to analyze the structure, morphology, gravimetrics, sedimentology, petrology, geochemistry, and paleontology of this submarine structure. Of special interest are a detailed comparison with other terrestrial and extraterrestrial craters, plus a conceptual model and computer simulation of the impact. The extensive illustrations include more than 150 line drawings and core photographs.
