| contents | This vibroseismic survey was conducted on Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica in 2022/23, as part of the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration's project GHOST (Geophysical Habitat of Subglacial Thwaites). The 210 km long seismic profile (section 20230551) was measured parallel to the average flow direction. The seismic source was generated by a seismic vibrator "EnviroVibe" (Industrial Vehicles Inc.) that was placed on a polyethylene sled and towed by a snow tractor (Eisen et al., 2015). The seismic vibrator was operated at 60% peak force (40 kN) with a shot interval of 75 m. At every shot location, we performed two sweeps. The first sweep (setup sweep) was used for snow densification and not recorded while the second sweep (acquisition sweep) was recorded with a 1500 m long "snowstreamer" (Fjord Instruments) towed behind the seismic vibrator. The sweep had a frequency range of 10–250 Hz. The up-sweep length was 10 s, with 0.5 s tapering at begin and end. The snowstreamer consists of 60 channels with a 25 m group spacing and a minimum offset of 43 m. The eight gimballed p-wave geophones per channel recorded for 14 s at a sampling interval of 0.5 ms. The signal was recorded with 3 "Geodes" (Geometrics Inc). GNSS data at every shot location were recorded with a Novatel Flexpak via a GNSS antenna located on the roof of the seismic vibrator. With this set-up, we collected ten-fold data in the upstream direction. The seismic raw data were processed to the different levels with Paradigm Echos (Aspen Technology Inc.).This dataset contains the recorded raw vibroseismic data in standard SEG-Y format, compressed by a cross-correlation with a synthetic source signal. The individual traces were assigned idealized geometry of shot locations. The shot coordinates include surface elevation relative to WGS84 based on ice surface heights. |
