Description
Summary:During the Antarctic summer 1988-89, a geophysical survey (seismic, gravity and magnetics) was carried out by the Osservatorio GeofisicoSperimentale (O.G.S.) of Trieste, Italy, in the Ross Sea with the Research Vessel O.G.S. Explora. 23 lines of total length 4113.1 Km were collected. The cruise began onDecember 10, 1988 from the harbor of Hobart (Australia) and ended on January 15, 1989, with its arrival in Dunedin (New Zealand). Gravimetric and geomagnetic data were continuously acquired during thecruise, with minor interruptions due to adverse sea conditions. The multichannel seismic survey was run in the Ross Sea from December 18 to January 8. The acquisition and processing parameters are described below.The project has been financially supported by the Italian Antarctic Program (PNRA).
