| Abstract | The main objective of SO186-1 was to contribute substantially to the implementation of the German-Indonesian Tsunami Early Warning System. The intention of this part of SO186-1d was to service the two experimental GI-TEWS buoys and some of the 35 ocean bottom instruments that were deployed during previous legs. The EM120 was continuously in operation until the recovery operation of OBS. During the whole survey programme a constant speed of 10 knots was maintained to achieve sufficient bottom coverage along-track and to get data of better quality. The total survey length sums up to 2,546 nautical miles, yielding an estimated areal coverage of about 45,000 km2. |
