During the austral summer 1996-97, an offshore/on carried out across the northern tip of the Antarctica project (cenozoic Tectonic Evolution of the Northe Argentinian bilateral research programme in Antarc seismic profiles (about 600 km in total) were acqu multichannel streamer, and an air gun array source bubble" mode. In order to avoid the "wrap-around" profiles were re-shot with a 120 s shooting interva recorded by 15 portable seismic stations on the Pen bottom seismographs (OBS) deployed in 16 positi seismic investigation was complemented by gravit Gravity measurements and geological observations continuation of the two main offshore-on land seis seismic source allowed high penetration and good q achieved for offsets larger than 100 km, on the Weddell Sea side of the AP.
