Abstract

A method is disclosed for marine seismic surveying in which a seismic signal is detected in a body of water with a motion sensor and a pressure sensor positioned at a location proximate the bottom of the body of water. Seismic signals are detected with pressure sensors positioned in one or more streamer cables being towed in the body of water near the location proximate the bottom of the water at which a motion sensor and a pressure sensor are positioned. The signals detected by the motion sensor and pressure sensor positioned proximate the bottom of the body of water are used for calibrating the seismic signals detected with the pressure sensors positioned in the streamer cables.
