Purpose
Abstract Purpose of the cruise SO98-1 was the investigation of the extend and the structural variability of the oceanic crust, the search for splinters of oceanic crust within the accretionary wedges at the subduction zones and the determination of the age of the oceanic crust. Furthermore, it was looked for bottom-simulating reflectors (BSR) which indicate gas hydrates in the sedimentary sequence. During SO98/1 multichannel reflection seismic, gravimetric, magnetic and hydroacoustic measurements were carried out along 21 lines with a total length of 3320 km. The responsible party has not provided further acquisition information.
