A buoy is configured to record seismic signals while underwater. The buoy includes a body; a buoyancy system configured to control a buoyancy of the body to descend multiple times to a predetermined depth (H) and then resurface with a controlled speed; and a seismic sensor located in the body and configured to record the seismic signals. The seismic sensor is instructed to record the seismic signals as the buoy travels up and down between the water surface and the predetermined depth.
