Güralp and Sonardyne Partner
, clients globally will benefit from a combined offering of technology for seismic data gathering, seabed deformation monitoring and tsunami detection, as well integrated acoustic positioning and telemetry for remote data access.At the heart of the cooperation is Güralp’s new Aquarius Ocean Bottom Seismometer (OBS). Comprising of a digital feedback tri-axial broadband seismometer, three-axis magnetometer, a micro-electric mechanical system (MEMS) accelerometer and absolute pressure gauge, Aquarius is also equipped with Sonardyne’s 6G Wideband low-mid frequency (LMF) acoustics.The low profile
Webinar to Exhibit R/V Langseth
Seismic Facility in the U.S. academic fleet. Its role in supporting research funded by the NSF and other U.S. Government Agencies along with others highlights the importance of marine seismology for U.S scientific research. The Langseth operations often very closely with OBSIP that manages the Ocean Bottom Seismometer pool that consists of instruments from SIO, WHOI, and L-DEO). The Langseth began operations in 2008 and has successfully carried out more than 27 marine seismic projects around the globe. This has included work in the Arctic Ocean (Chukchi Sea), Bering Sea, Gulf of Alaska, Aleutians
Hydro-Lek HyBIS Deployed for Gas Research
Hydro-Lek’s underwater sampling and observation platform, HyBIS, was deployed during a scientific research expedition into gas hydrates in the South China Sea lead by GEOMAR Helmholtz Center for Ocean Research Kiel. As demand for energy increases in industrialized regions of the world, so resources to produce energy within these areas are depleting. Scientists are now looking at natural gas hydrates on the ocean floor as a possible solution to this problem. Gas hydrates form in the sea floor whenever there is enough methane and the pressure is sufficiently high and the water temperature
