Description
Summary:In Austral Summer 1994-95 Istituto Nazionale di Oceanografia e di Geofisica Sperimentale (OGS) conducted marine geological and geophysical surveys over the Antarctic Peninsular. During this cruise five (5) research programmes were conducted for a total approximately of 4469 km of multichannel seismic reflection (MCS) data. The research programmes were: SEDANO (SEdiment Drifts of the ANtarctic Offshore) with 1340 km of MCS data. During the Programme SEDANO nine (9) 60-fold multichannel seismic lines were collected in the Antarctic Peninsular. The surveys were carried out by the research vessel OGS Explora. The digital MCS data were recorded on a SERCEL SN 358 DMX system. The source consisted of two GI guns with a total volume of 6.7 litres fired approximately every 25 meters into a 3000 m cable consisting of 120 hydrophone groups for the 60-fold profiles. A GPS + TRANSIT satellite receiver system was used for the navigation.
