ABSTRACT:
A seismic source drives one or more jets of high velocity water into an underwater environment and then terminates the jets by means of a valve member, the motion of which is controlled to obtain precisely timed high energy seismic pulses to provide reflected signals from which high resolution seismograms may be obtained when the signals are processed.
