Surface tow boomer survey of Loch Linnhe.

This report provides information on the collaboration between BGS and SAMS on the
completion of a seismic survey of Loch Linnhe. The survey ran from the 11th to the 15th of
January, on board the vessel RV Calanus.
The project was lead by PhD student Kate McIntyre and Dr. John Howe of SAMS; BGS were
invited to provide personnel and equipment for the completion of a surface towed boomer survey
of Loch Linnhe on the west coast of Scotland. The survey plan was based on a previously
conducted multibeam survey from February 2009 (as shown in figure 1b), the aim was to
provide further geological data in the form of sub bottom seismic to analyse alongside the
bathymetry. The line names shown in figure 1b do not correspond to the line names run in this
survey. See appendix 2 for run line numbers.
