Please note that operations with the Seismic Equipment can only be operated upon request. Request operations with the Seismic Equipoment to AWI-Geophysics and AWI-Logistics in sufficient time prior to the cruise. Operations of the system require experienced scientific staff on board. The system is not operated by the ship's crew. |

Marine seismic data acquisition is a technique to generate and record seismic waves in the subsurface. By determining location and shape of seismic reflections below the seafloor, a structural map of the subsurface can be created. For this
you need a source for the seismic signal (Airguns) and receivers for recording the reflected (Hydrophone Streamer) or refracted (Ocean Bottom Seismometer) signals. |

Array
The Marine Seismic System consits of onboard data control and acquisition computers and tape drives for data storage, a Hydrophone Streamer (reflection seismic) or Ocean Bottom Seismometer (OBS; refraction seismic) and an airgun cluster (GI-guns or G-guns) as seismic source.
Parts of airgun deployment rail are stored in container WCAU351219-7. |
