Abstract

Uniboom seismic reflection profiling on Lake Rotorua has revealed a strong lakefloor reflector which masks almost all underlying reflectors. This strong reflector is interpreted as a layer of gas-charged sediments. Other gas characteristics such as phase reversals and pockmarks have been observed in association with the reflector. The gas coverage is locally absent in the east, where reflectors up to 60 m below the lakesurface are observed. The gas-free area corresponds to a high magnetic anomaly suggesting that the two effects are causally related.
