Acoustic seafloor observations and carbonate sedimentology off Morroco: initial results
In: IOC Workshop Report, vol. 197, pp. 18, Marrakech, Morocco 2 - 5 February 2005, UNESCO-IOC.
In 2002, the Moroccan Margin was probed with side-scan sonar and deep-tow camera systems and intensively sampled with a range of techniques, during the TTR12 cruise, after the Cadipor cruise had discovered the extensive El Arraiche mud volcano field, boasting the largest submarine mud volcanoes ever seen and deep-water mound structures at a fault-bounded cliff. During TTR14 Leg 1, the Moroccan Margin was surveyed further south with seismics, side-scan sonar and multiple sampling techniques, in search for fluid escape features in order to estimate the extent of activity and tectonic relations.
