The main goal of the INDEMARES CHICA 1011 oceanographic cruise was to study the seafloor geomorphology in order to explore new areas associated with habitats related to the gas seepages in the Gulf of Cadiz. For this, a mosaic of the multibeam bathyme try, very high-resolution seismic profiles and submarine video and photographic transect was made. The survey was carried out between the 20th October 2011 and the 1st November 2011 having Cadiz as a base port. The majority of the days was bad-weather; in fact, we had to come back to the port on 27th October owing to the stormy weather. It has been obtained a total of 1636 nautical miles of bathymetric and seismic data from the upper continental slope of the Gulf of Cadiz. The prospected area was of 2,550 km2 located between 100 and 900 m depth. The multibeam echosounder was calibrated daily by means of sound velocity profiles. Photographic transects were made on 21, 26 and 31 october, in Gazul and Albolote mud volcanoes and in the head of one canyon situated in the south of the study area.

Multidisciplinary cruise: anchored tools, sampling physical and chemical variables that will: - Study thermohaline characteristics, kinematics, dynamics and biology of the eastern half of the Gulf of Cadiz. - Study of carbon fluxes between the Atlantic and Mediterranean. - Establish relationships between climate, hydrology and hydrodynamics and the early stages of development of the species associated with the platform, with emphasis on species of commercial interest in a space/time. - Provide data to feed global and regional numerical models. - Generate and distribute a database for the evolution of the marine climate and its resources.
