A system for securing a safety device to a leash (SSSDL) that functions in combination with an animal leash that is used to restrain or control an animal which is typically a dog. The SSSDL has a securing member in the form of a bracket or an enclosure that is connected by attachment means to a surface of a leash. Removable attachment means including at least one strap, at least one cable, a hook and loop fastener, a double-sided tape or at least two gripping members, or permanent attachment means including at least one screw, at least one bolt and nut or an adhesive, can be utilized. The safety device preferably consists of a stun gun or an air horn, although other types of safety devices can be used with equal efficacy. For the bracket, the safety device is secured by means including at least one strip, at least one cable, a double-sided tape, or at least one clamp. For the enclosure, the safety device is inserted into and maintained within the enclosure. One of the main inventive features of the SSSDL is that the safety device can be actuated by a person while the person retains a grip on the leash and maintains control of an animal to which the leash is tethered.

A system may include a conduit coupled between a marine seismic source and a gas reservoir external to the seismic source. The conduit may have at least one adjustable dimension for changing a resonance frequency of the system. The system may be utilized in a method of marine seismic surveying.
