Widespread Deposition In A Coastal Bay Following Three Major 2017 Hurricanes (Irma, Jose, And Maria) [USVI]

A difference map of Coral Bay, St. John, USVI. The post-storm November 2017 survey was subtracted from the pre-storm August 2017 survey. Deposition is indicated by positive values (green, yellow, orange, red); erosion in negative values (blue). The largest area of deposition (outlined with a black dashed line) is characterized by deposition ranging from 20 to 60 cm. Coral mounds in central Johnson Bay have a general flute mark pattern of deposition toward Coral Harbor and erosion to seaward. Six sediment cores (white circles) were collected in November of 2017.
• Bottom Left: Eastern Puerto Rico and the US and British Virgin Islands with the 2017 hurricane tracks from Category 5 Hurricanes Irma and Maria. St. John, US Virgin Islands sits on a shelf ~60 meters below sea level (This map was generated using NOAA’s U.S. Virgin Islands 1 arc-second MHW Coastal Digital Elevation Model) • Top Left: St. John, US Virgin Islands showing the watershed source area (This map and the map shown to the right were generated using US Army Corps of Engineers US Virgin Islands Orthophoto Mosaic) • Right: Coral Bay, St. John with its protected waters and lands. Bathymetry shown was collected after the 2017 hurricane season in November and December of 2017.

Pro tip for anyone who happens to be looking for high resolution #bathymetry and #topography map images. Nasa's publicly available images top out at 3.6k pixels wide, which might not be enough for say a detailed 3D model. But if you go to the web page where they're available e.g. https://neo.gsfc.nasa.gov/view.php?datasetId=GEBCO_BATHY and click one of the download links, it actually renders the data live. So if you hack the URL you can dial up any* resolution you want.
The URL for the bathymetry data for example ends with &amp;format=PNG&amp;width=3600&amp;height=1800. If you want an image with say, 10 times the resolution, just add a zero to both dimensions.
*Not sure what the upper limit is, or what resolution the original data set is. Don't abuse it or it might get taken away.
