Notes: Antarctic Program multichannel seismic reflection data collected and processed by the Institute Francois du Petrole in 1982. This data was received by USGS in 1986 in exchange for a similar data package of USGS seismic data sent to J. Wannesson of the Institute Francois du Petrole in Paris. Details of data recording and processing can be found in Wanneson et. al. (1985). Steve Eittreim, 1/27/2004.
