Bathymetry, Seismic work and Geophysical Survey of the submerged Paleolithic of the Cantabrica Sea continental platform
LASEA campain from project CGL2011-30302-C02 has the following objectives: Phase 1: Acquire bathymetric and seismic data from the gulf of Cadiz using acoustic echo sounders EM710, TOPAS and Sparker. Phase 2: Obtain sediment samples from the gulf of Cadiz and complementary bathymetric data.
1.- Estudio integral del cañón de Algeciras desde su cabecera hasta su desembocadura incluyendo: batimetría, reflectividad, perfiles sísmicos de alta resolución del subsuelo, caracterización sedimentaria, de los hábitats y de las comunidades bentónicas asociadas. 1.a.- De forma alternativa si existiera algún contratiempo que impidiera el desarrollo de la campaña en la Cañón de Algeciras, se prevé realizar el estudio integral de alguno de los cañones existentes en el margen septentrional del mar de Alborán. 2.- Muestreo de montículos en el talud continental del Mar de Alborán.

Multidisciplinary cruise: 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 flows between the Atlantic and Mediterranean watershed. - 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.
