| Definition | A seismic source whereby small charges (50-150g) are propelled through a rubber hose by water under pressure into an empty, perforated sphere where they are detonated. The holes in the sphere allow the water repelled by the explosion to flow in and out, thus dissipating some of the energy in the bubble effect. Flexotir was commonly used as an energy source for seafloor seismic surveys during the 1970s. | ||
