Seismic reflection geophysics uses sound waves to image the subsurface by producing signals at the surface, capturing reflections from interfaces between rock layers, attenuating noise to enhance the signal, and commonly uses air guns deployed from ships as the sound source. Air guns are often deployed in arrays to generate stronger signals that can penetrate deeper and provide higher resolution images of the subsurface structures.
