Abstract: | Abstract Several physical aspects of continuous subbottom profiling are presented, and their relationship to operating characteristics of profiling instruments is discussed. Interpretation of data produced by shallow‐penetration continuous profilers, such as the SONIA system, is a process of transformation of the continuous measurement of the travel times of reflected sound pulses into geologic phenomena. Essentially, the continuous profiler is a geologic tool; interpretation of the data is based on geologic observation and reasoning, irrespective of the further use of the information obtained in applied science. However, interpreters must have sufficient knowledge of the geophysical system and of the equipment design to be in a position to evaluate the significance of their interpretation. |
