    Abstract: This disclosure is related generally to marine surveying. An apparatus for generation of seismic waves in a body of water may include a wave generator. The apparatus may further include a housing defining an internal chamber having an open end. The housing may include baffles positioned between the open end and the wave generator. The housing may further include a vent positioned on an opposite end of the housing from the baffles.

    Abstract: Numerous techniques and apparatus are disclosed relating to the performance of 4D marine geophysical surveys over at least first and second areas covered, respectively, by first and second preexisting baseline surveys. Performing the monitor surveys may include deploying a monitor survey streamer layout that can be used to repeat streamer positions of both the first and the second preexisting baseline surveys, and using the monitor survey streamer layout to perform the monitor survey over the first and second areas in a manner that repeats all streamer positions of the first preexisting baseline survey when over the first area, and that repeats all streamer positions of the second preexisting baseline survey when over the second area. Streamer layouts corresponding to the first and second preexisting baseline surveys may differ in at least one of the following characteristics: streamer separation or total number of streamers.
