Equipment Used

|
Purpose
|
To evaluate the marine geology offshore of the city of Kahului, Maui,
Hawaii.

|
|
Information to be Derived
|
Seismic reflection profiles.

Summary
|
The geophysical method of continuous seismic profiling was used.
An EG and G uniboom system was used aboard a small diving boat for the
operation. The system was operated at 1/4 second firing rate on a 1/4
second sweep at a power output of 200-400 joules. This system in practice
gives resolution of geologic units on the order of the 1-3 feet to
penetrable depths of 100-300 feet below the sea floor.
