    There were five main objectives for the trials cruise: The first tests of the Autosub Long Range AUV, testing of the HyBIS video guided grab system, testing of the MYRTLE-X Lander systems, testing of a deep camera system for the Lake Ellsworth probe and test deployments of the PELAGRA neutrally buoyant sediment capture drifters. The working area was about 300 miles south west of the Canary Islands, in international waters, over benthic plains of 4000 m depth, with some tests of the video systems over a isolated sea mount rising to 1200 m depth. Most of the objectives of the cruise where met, with successful diving and control of the Autosub LR, tests of the HyBIS and Ellsworth camera systems, and 3 test deployments and recoveries of two PELAGRA floats. Several wire tests of MYRTLE-X systems were carried out, predominantly successful, but concerns over the release system prevented a deployment of the lander. The tests were all purely engineering, hence no science data were collected.

    <p style="margin-left:0cm; margin-right:0cm">The Protevs Swot 2018 campaign aimed to explore the South Balearic zone in early spring to observe the small scales of the oceanic mixed layer using high-resolution sampling devices.</p> <p style="margin-left:0cm; margin-right:0cm">The area was chosen because it was positioned below the SWOT satellite's planned swath in its validation/calibration period. In this sense, it is a precursor experiment of experiments for the year 2022 and as such exploratory of the scales that will be observable by this newly designed altimetry satellite.</p> <p style="margin-left:0cm; margin-right:0cm">A particular focus was placed on an anticyclonic structure in the southern Balearic Islands that is systematically detectable by altimetry but which appears to be an artifact.</p> <p style="margin-left:0cm; margin-right:0cm">These samplings were combined with fine analysis of the surface content of small phytoplankton by flow cytometry to study the shaping of the marine landscape by frontal physical processes.</p>

    La creciente necesidad de informacion que requiere la evaluacion y gestion actuales de las especies explotadas, especialmente en el caso de la merluza, pero tambien en otros como los gallos, rapes o la cigala, hacen necesario obtener informacion independiente de las pesquerias sobre la situacion de estas poblaciones. Para lo cual se determino la realizacion de los siguientes objetivos:\nEstimacion de indices de abundancia estratificados por edad de merluza, rapes y gallos en las divisiones VIIbk.\nEstimacion de indices de abundancia estratificados de otras especies comerciales como la cigala, el mendo, las rayas o la brotola de fango.\nEstimacion de la fuerza de los reclutamientos y localizacion de las agregaciones de juveniles de merluza, rapes y gallos.\nDescripcion de los patrones de distribucion espacial de las especies demersales y bentonicas en el banco de Porcupine.\nObtencion de muestras de especies comerciales para estudios de niveles de contaminacion por arsenico y metales pesados.\nRecogida de muestras de especies para el estudio de la biologia de las principales especies comerciales en el area (otolitos, ilicios y otros).\nEstudio de la hidrografia (temperatura, salinidad y densidad de la columna de agua) del banco de Porcupine.\nMarcado de rapes para el estudio de sus migraciones y crecimiento.\nRecogida de ejemplares de jurel para estudios de genetica.
