Purpose
|
|
Geology and resources of the Solomon Islands region of the
|
|
South Pacific.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Seismic reflection profiles, bathymetry, gravity, lithology.
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
Approximately 3,500 km of 24-channel seismic-reflection profiles
|
|
in the Solomon Islands region of the South Pacific. The seismic energy source
|
|
consisted of a tuned array of five airguns with a total volume of 1,313 cu. in.
|
|
of air compressed to approximately 1,900 psi. The recording system consisted of
|
|
a 24-channel, 2400-m long streamer with a group interval of 100 m, and
|
|
a GUS (Global Universal Science) model 4200 digital recording instrument. Shots
|
|
were fired every 50 m with 100-m group intervals. Navigational control for the
|
|
survey was provided by a Magnavox-integrated navigation system using transit
|
|
satellites and Doppler sonar. A 2-msec sampling rate was used in the field and
|
|
the data were later desampled to 4 msec during the demultiplexing process.
|
|
A 10-sec data length was recorded, which, combined with a deep-water delay,
|
|
yielded up to 16 sec of two-way travel time. The sequence of processing of data
|
|
was editing-demultiplexing, velocity analysis, CDP stacking,
|
|
deconvolution-filtering, and plotting on an electrostatic plotter.
