Continuous seismic reflection profiling buoys - a future direction for marine geophysical exploration of the Arctic Ocean

Experience from the last decade of icebreaker expeditions into the central Arctic Ocean demonstrate that about a quarter of the deep polar basin will remain inaccessible to modern multi-channel seismic exploration by towed arrays even when the survey vess el is assisted by a nuclear icebreaker. W...
