This is one of 14 associated files relating to Worm Based Interpolation Boundaries, as part of the Low Temperature Geothermal Play Fairway Analysis for the Appalachian Basin. This file contains two shapefiles, used for display purposes (GravWorms_18+.shp and MagWorms_18+.shp), as mentioned below.
The 14 files .zip files contain the data used and the products of the worm-based delineation of interpolation boundaries using ArcGIS. The gravity and pseudogravity (magnetic) worms are contained in two SQLite databases that are part of a separate data submission, "Risk of Seismicity in Low-Temperature Geothermal Play Fairway Analysis for the Appalachian Basin (GPFA-AB)". These databases were loaded into QGIS and queried for only those worm levels (worm_level) that were greater than 18, which is essentially deeper than 18 km. These were converted into a shapefile for display purposes (GravWorms_18+.shp and MagWorms_18+.shp). Digitization of the interpolation boundaries was done in ArcGIS using the Editor toolbar, and was based primarily on the gravity worms. Only one region, SWPA, required information from the magnetic worms because of a strong magnetic contrast that defines this section. Names of the boundaries were made according to geographic location within the Appalachian Basin. For example, the so-called Valley and Ridge boundary roughly follows the Valley and Ridge physiographic province. Further details, including full names of the sections, are provided within the file called 9_GPFA-AB_InterpolationThermalFieldEstimation.pdf (within the project final report). Note that section MT and section WWV are used interchangeably to refer to the same section.
Section names used in the file name schema:
CNY = Central New York;
CT = Chautauqua County, New York;
CWV = Central West Virginia;
ENY = Eastern New York;
ENYPA = Eastern New York and Eastern Pennsylvania;
MT = Western West Virginia;
NWPANDY = Northwestern Pennsylvania and Northwestern New York;
SWPA = Southwestern Pennsylvania;
VR = Valley and Ridge;
WPA = Western Pennsylvania
