The main objective of EGLACOM is the geophysical and stratigraphic high-resolution study of an ice stream dominated marine depositional system of the Arctic margin in order to reconstruct the margin evolution locally from the Pliocene to the recent-most deglaciation, and to define the sedimentary architecture and seafloor morphology as it changed through time since the onset of glacial conditions. The target study area is the southern margin of Svalbard, and in particular the glacial sedimentary system fed by the ice stream once occupying the Storfjiorden glacial trough in the northern Barents Sea. 1071 kilometres of MultiChannel Seismic profiles have been acquired using Sleeve Airguns 96-channel Sercel digital streamer.

During Austral Summer1991-92 the National Institute of Oceanography and Applied Geophysics - OGS conducted marine geological and geophysical surveys over the Antarctic Peninsular and the Bransfield Strait. During this cruise approximately 3407 km of 30-fold multichannel seismic reflection (MCS) data were collected in the Antarctic Peninsular and the Bransfield Strait between longitudes 50 and 78 degrees West, and latitudes 60 and 68 degrees South. The surveys were carried out by the research vessel OGS Explora. The digital MCS data were recorded on a SERCEL SN 358 DMX system. The source consisted of an airgun array with a total volume of 71.96 litres fired approximately every 50 meters into a 3000 m cable consisting of 120 hydrophone groups towed at an average depth of 12 m. A GPS + TRANSIT satellite receiver system was used for the navigation. Processing of the data generally followed a conventional sequence: Reformat, Trace-sum with differential NMO, Quality control, Amplitude recovery, Deconvolution, Velocity analysis, NMO corrections, Mute, Trace weighting, Stack, Mixing, Filter, Balance.

During austral summer1994/95, the National Institute of Oceanography and Applied Geophysics - OGS, on board the research vessel OGS-Explora, conducted marine geological and geophysical surveys along the Antarctic Peninsula. The ANGELINA (ANtarctic GEophysical Long range INternational Acquisition) programme was a seismic exploration cruise in the Adelaide Fracture Zone on the Pacific Margin, near Marguerite Bay and Adelaide Island; data were collected between longitude 68 and 74 degrees West, and latitude 66 and 69 degrees South. During this programme 610 km of 20-fold multichannel seismic reflection (MCS) data, 20 second records, 4 ms sample rate, were recorded on a SERCEL SN 358 DMX system. The source consisted of an airgun array with a total volume of 75 litres fired every 75 meters into a 3000 m cable consisting of 120 hydrophone groups towed at an average depth of 10 m. A GPS + TRANSIT satellite receiver system was used for navigation. The Chief Scientist on this programme was: Michele Pipan of the Dipartimento di Scienze Geologiche Ambientali e Marine of the Università di Trieste, via Weiss n.2, 34127 Trieste, Italy. Processing of the data generally followed a conventional sequence: Reformat, Quality control, Amplitude recovery, Deconvolution, Velocity analysis, NMO corrections, Mute, Stack, Mixing, Filter, and Dynamic trace equalisation.
