Sebring’s center stands about 140 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 100 ft to 150 ft, a difference of 50 ft: nearly flat ground.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Reworked Cypresshead sediments (sand), from the Late Pliocene to Pleistocene, less than 3.6 million years old.
The section below crosses 4 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 64×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Sand. Age: Late Pliocene to Pleistocene, less than 3.6 million years old. About 9 mi of the line.
Sand, clay. Age: Pleistocene to Holocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 8 mi of the line.
Sand. Age: Late Pliocene, 2.6 to 3.6 million years old. About 4 mi of the line.
Sand. Age: Late Pliocene to Pleistocene, less than 3.6 million years old. About 4 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.
Heights from Copernicus GLO-90 (a surface model: it includes buildings and tree canopy); summits from USGS GNIS; rivers from USGS NHDPlus HR; rock from the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation.
