Hudson River - Circum Long Island Seismic Experiment (HURCULISE)

该项目考察了沿可通航的内陆水道进行多通道地震剖面的可行性。地震测量线沿着哈德逊河和纽约长岛北侧的水道。该项目是在这种独特的环境中对MCS方法的重要测试；如果要将这一概念应用于其他地方，就必须开发针对特定目标的分析技术。该剖面将在构造上穿越阿巴拉契亚过渡带，有助于加深对古生代和中生代构造的认识。

The project examines the feasibility of performing multichannel seismic profiling along navigable inland waterways. The seismic survey line is along the Hudson River and the waterway on the north side of Long Island, New York. The project is an important test of the MCS methodology in this unique environment; development of target specific profiling techniques will be necessary if the concept is to be applied elsewhere. The profile will cross structurally the Appalachian transition zone, and could provide improved understanding of Paleozoic and Mesozoic structure.
