Zusammenfassung:Method and marine acoustic source array for generating an acoustic wave in a body of water. The marine acoustic source array includes at least one sub-array. The at least one sub-array includes a float from which plural source points are attached. The source points may be provided on a curved line, straight line, or other desired shape so that a variable-depth source is obtained with a single float. The source points may be divided into groups and the groups may be provided on the curved line, straight line or other desired shape.
