Lacustrine Seismics
Lacustrine geophysical research is carried out to study tectonic, sedimentary and paleoclimate questions in lakes. As in marine geophysical research, different methods are combined (single-channel and multi-channel seismic reflection, seismic refraction, high-frequency echosounder systems, occasionally gravity and magnetic). However, as the investigation areas and targets are smaller (in terms of lake diameter as well as depth of bedrock etc.), the lacustrine equipment is downscaled and transportable.
