Title of datasetSparker seismic profiles (67 to 70b) in the Ceuta canyon region
Narrative summary of datasetSparker seismic profiles profiles in order to define the main geohazard features in the Ceuta canyon region. The GRACE cruise aimed to study the geological risks associated to the Ceuta Canyon and its adjacent areas onboard the R/V Belgica (RBINSOD Nature, Belgium). The GRACE cruise pursued two main objectives: to better understand the Ceuta Canyon, including its origins, influence of tectonic features, and chronostratigraphy of the deposits; and to study the potential hazardous geological and oceanographic processes occurring in the Ceuta Canyon and adjacent areas.
Summary of processing methodologySeismic profiles were obtained with a Sparker system composed of a multitap SIG ELC820, and the source varied during the course of the cruise from Applied Acoustics CSP600 to CSP700. The records were filtered for enhancing the seismic signal and gain compensation.
