Continuous Seismic Profiling (CSP) at Callahan Mine Site: May 2017 to July 2018

In May 2017 and July 2018, continuous seismic profiling (CSP) surveys were collected in Goose Pond at the Callahan Mine site. The chirp frequency CSP tool was used in the deep water. A tuned transducer (dual-echo sounder) was used in the shallow water, and the data are served separately but within this data release (See CSP-DSO). CSP methods use an acoustic sound source that travels through the water column, reflects off the bottom and sub-bottom layers and is received at the transducer. Using a water column velocity, the two-way travel time can be converted to distance. CSP methods provide the depth to water bottom, and when sufficient signal penetration can be achieved, CSP can be used to delineate the depth and topography of the [...]
