Marine seismic sources, receivers, and recording with reference to the S. P. Lee

January 1, 1979

During 1975, the Pacific-Arctic Branch of the Office of Marine Geology installed a seismic system onboard the USGS vessel S.P. Lee. The major components of the system include a Bolt 5 air gun array, a 2400 meter SEI streamer, and a GUS high density recording system. Various high resolution/single channel seismic systems are also onboard. From 1975 to 1978 several short "test cruises" were conducted to determine some of the characteristics of, and to calibrate these various systems. Additionally we have delved into various theoretical and design aspects of this equipment.
