Processed seismic data of Cruise HE242

The previous BGR-cruises with RV AURELIA in 2003 and 2004 were designed to collect a grid of seismic MCS-data which should enable us to get a high-resolution overview over the upper 1 s TWT of the sediments of the German North Sea sector. The data format is Society of Exploration Geophysicists SEG Y. Together with the previously acquired data these new data should help to extend our knowledge of the Late Tertiary and Quaternary evolution of the German North Sea Sector. For the current measurements under the scope of the DFG-funded project RE2424/1-1 ‚Nordsee’ the research vessel RV HEINCKE was made available by the ‘Senatskommission für Ozeanographie’ of the DFG. During the cruise a total ca. 1400 km of high quality MCS lines were surveyed and simultaneously measured by a sediment echosounder system that enabled additional profiles during transits with speeds > 5 kn. The BGR high-resolution multichannel seismic reflection system consisting of a GI-Gun (0.8 l) and a 300 m streamer with 24 channels and a sediment echosounder type SES 2000 standard by Innomar, Rostock. While the BGR-seismic system was used to observe the shallow subsurface down to 2 s TWT penetration depth, the sediment echosounder with a penetration depth of several meters was primarily intended to identify sampling positions for the deployment of the BGR vibration corer during the succeeding Leg 2. Additionally, the echosounder system enables the relationship to the highest-resolution multichannel seismic measurements of the group of the University of Bremen on FK SENCKENBERG. All seismic records were processed onboard for the quality control and for a first interpretation.

Lineage

During the period from 17th of October to 14th of November 2005 BGR aquired seismic lines in the Central North Sea. The lines HE242-01, HE242-02, HE242-03, HE242-04, HE242-04A, HE242-05, HE242-06, HE242-07, HE242-07A, HE242-08, HE242-09, HE242-10, HE242-11, HE242-12, HE242-13, HE242-14, HE242-15, HE242-16, HE242-17, HE242-18, HE242-19, HE242-20, HE242-21, HE242-22, HE242-23, HE242-24, HE242-25, HE242-26, HE242-27, HE242-27A, HE242-30, HE242-31, HE242-32, HE242-33, HE242-34, HE242-35, HE242-36, HE242-37, HE242-40, HE242-41 and HE242-44 are processed (stack) data, whereas lines HE242-28, HE242-29, HE242-32A, HE242-38, HE242-39, HE242-42, HE242-43 are raw data.
