Description:
On the Low Frequency Acoustic - Seismic Experiment (LFASE), carried out at DSDP hole
534A in August, 1989, WHOI was responsible for acquiring data from a twelve channel borehole
seismic array. Data were acquired both on-board while tethered to the array and autonomously in a
seafloor package. Seismic source data (explosives and airguns) and ambient noise data were
recorded. This report describes the nature of data acquired, reviews the data reduction procedure
from field format to ROSE data format, and includes examples of the data. A total of918.6
Mbytes of data were acquired (769 Mbytes in the shipboard recording mode and 149.6 Mbytes in
the seafloor recording mode). Approximately 85 explosive shots, 2000 airgun shots, and 10 hours
of ambient noise data were recorded.
