The chirp is also seismic data and classed as \u2018single channel.\u2019 It uses a hydrophone array mounted on the hull of the ship, and the transmitted sound is just a \u2018ping\u2019 or \u2018chirp,\u2019 as opposed to \u2018multi-channel\u2019 hydrophones along a seismic streamer, that require a small \u2018bang\u2019 from the guns. The frequency is much higher; therefore, with this system we are able to image even finer (decimeter scale) sediment layering near the surface. The chirp typically penetrates ~40 m into the sediment in this area, however the chirp system on this ship penetrates just &lt; 20 m, so we are missing some data deeper down.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6418 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/cage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/3d-surface.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"618\" height=\"884\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/cage\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/492\/2021\/07\/3d-surface.png 618w, https:\/\/site.uit.no\/cage\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/492\/2021\/07\/3d-surface-210x300.png 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>3D surface in miliseconds two-way time, using a rainbow colour scale, extracted from 3D seismic volume data, shows a buried glacial feature.

We will shoot all 12 crosslines and some \u2018inlines\u2019 first, then we will move onto the circlular lines. The acquisition survey design is typically in this way for OBS active experiments, with the feature of interest in the centre of the array. The placement of the OBS is also dependent on the topography of the seafloor. We try to avoid landing them on dipping surfaces and away from depressions.
