Abstract
High-resolution seismic reflection systems operating at acoustic frequencies between 1.0 and 14.0 kHz are grouped within the general category of subbottom profilers. These systems allow for continuous high-resolution seismic profile recordings of the uppermost 30 m of strata, below the sea floor.
