Abstract
A method of seismic exploration above a region of the subsurface of the earth containing structural or stratigraphic features conducive to the presence, migration, or accumulation of hydrocarbons comprises setting a tow depth of a resonant seismic source, producing a resonant frequency at a first amplitude with the resonant seismic source at the tow depth, detecting a depth excursion from the tow depth, reducing an amplitude of the mass from the first amplitude to a second amplitude, preventing the mass from contacting at least one of the first end stop or the second end stop based on reducing the amplitude to the second amplitude, correcting the depth excursion to return the resonant seismic source to the tow depth, and increasing the amplitude from the second amplitude to produce the resonant frequency with the resonant seismic source at the tow depth.
