Abstract:
A subaqueous underground survey system using a reflection seismic survey method includes: multiple sound sources 1 for generating sound waves in the water; a controller 2 for controlling phases of the sound waves; a geophone 3 for receiving reflected waves of the sound waves; and an observation ship 4 equipped with the sound sources 1, wherein the controller 2 controls phases of the sound sources 1 so that the sound waves generated from the respective sound sources 1 have a phase difference at a water bottom surface B, thereby controlling generation of shear waves to propagate into the ground.
