9302578 Diebold A multichannel seismic survey of two areas in the Caribbean will be carried out to study the structure and the genesis and tectonic development of the Carribean Plate. The deep structure of the Venezuela Basin contains clues necessary to understand the tectonic evolution and the structure of the Beata Ridge is important for the understanding of how the Caribbean has accomodated the stresses that have resulted in differential strain and plate movements. High resolution, deep-penetrating multichannel seismic data will be collected to resolve these issues. ***

小行星9302578 将对加勒比两个地区进行多通道地震勘测，以研究加勒比板块的结构、成因和构造发展。 委内瑞拉盆地的深层结构包含了解构造演化所需的线索，贝阿塔海岭的结构对于了解加勒比海如何适应导致差异应变和板块运动的应力非常重要。 将收集高分辨率、深穿透多道地震数据来解决这些问题。 ***
