Signal characteristics of surface seismic explosive sources near the West Antarctic Ice Sheet divide by Marianne S. Karplus, Nori Nakata, Galen M. Kaip, Steven H. Harder, Lucia F. Gonzalez, Adam D. Booth, Emma C. Smith, Stephen A. Veitch, Jacob I. Walter, Poul Christoffersen

“…The Poulter shots had a higher amplitude for low frequencies (<10 Hz) and comparable amplitude at high frequencies (>50 Hz) relative to the detonating cord. Amplitudes, frequencies, speed of source set-up, and cost all suggested Poulter shots to be the preferred surface source compared to detonating cord for future 2-D and 3-D seismic surveys on glaciers.…”
