| 902 | 3C seismometers | Devices placed on the ground or seabed to measure physical movement of that substrate. 3C seismometers are built of multiple motion sensors oriented in a tri-axial mode. Allows for recording of compressional and shear waves. | 2011-01-28 |
| 903 | 3C seismometers with hydrophone | Devices placed on the ground or seabed to measure physical movement of that substrate whilst simultanously measuring underwater acoutic signals. These are built of multiple motion sensors oriented in a tri-axial mode plus a hydrophone. | 2011-01-28 |
| 369 | Hydrophones | Devices containing transducers that convert underwater sound waves into electrical signals. | 2011-01-28 |
| 901 | Multiple streamers | An array of regularly spaced streamers towed behind a vessel listening the same source. | 2011-01-28 |
| 368 | Seismometers | Devices placed on the ground or seabed to measure physical movement of that substrate. | 2011-01-28 |
| 900 | Streamers | Individual marine cables incorporating regularly separated hydrophones, designed for continuous towing through the water. A streamer is neutrally buoyant and depth controllers are attached to depress the streamer to the proper towing depth. | 2011-01-28 |
