摘要
A marine seismic system for recording near-vertical incidence to wide-angle reflected waves and refracted waves was used to obtain detailed crustal structure off Canada's west coast. Profiles about 20 km in length were recorded in three regions: the Hudson '70 survey area near 51 degree N, 133 degree W; west of Queen Charlotte Sound; and in norhtern Cascadia basin, west of central Vancouver Island. The results of this test cruise, in which data were acquired in each of the three regions of the western continental margin, are presented in this paper. 34 drefs.
