OCEAN BOTTOM SEISMOMETER AND ONSHORE-OFFSHORE SEISMIC EXPERIMENT IN NORTHEASTERN SOUTH CHINA SEA

Qiu Xue

Open publisher page 10 citations

Abstract

We use the 3 component Ocean Bottom Seismometers, portable land stations and marine air gun seismic source to carry out an onshore offshore deep seismic profile in northeast South China Sea. This profile, orientated in NNW SSE, is 500 km long and perpendicular to the strike of regional tectonics. The seismic data obtained are in good quality and contain rich information of deep structure. Seismic phases like Pg, PmP and Pn are identified, which will provide an important data set for the deep crustal structure and oil gas basin evolution studies of this region.
