. The Earth beneath the sea : History . 200 300 Frequency in sec' lb' 400 500 Fig. 1. Low-frequency part of the Fourier energy spectiuui of an explosion at 500-ft depth. (After Raitt, 1952.) slowly moving ship can reach a safe distance away. The damaging effects are accentuated in shallow w^ater, and the larger charges must often be fired at greater depths than is desirable. At ranges short of that at which the first refracted wave is detected, a series of small charges is frequently fired to get a w'ide-angle reflection profile; in this case the amount of energy is usually more than adequate, even with quite small charges, and efficiency is sacrificed so as to obtain a less complex arrival by firing the charges so near the surface that
