Ocean Bottom Hydrophones (OBH) and Seismometers (OBS)
Ocean Bottom Hydrophones (OBH) and Seismometers (OBS) have been developed and operated by the MARINE GEODYNAMICS Group since 1991.
The actual
Ocean bottom electromagnetic system
Electromagnetic (EM) methods are used to image the resistivity structure of the subsurface by means of measuring components of the electric and/or magnetic field.
Mobile multibeam system
The institute GEOMAR owns a mobile multibeam system, the L3-ELAC SeaBeam 1050/1180, which can also be employed on the research vessels POSEIDON and ALKOR if required. The
The P-Cable-System
The P-Cable system design has been developed to enable 3-D high resolution imaging of shallow horizons from mid-size research vessels. GEOMAR is holding an academic license of the
Seismic sources
At the institute GEOMAR two types of airguns developed by the company Sercel are used to get seismic data, the G.GUN and the GI GUN.
The GI GUN is a pneumatic seismic source,
