Dataset identification

Title of datasetBathymetry in the area of the Spanish margin of the Alboran Sea
Narrative summary of datasetThis bathymetry was recovered in the framework of the MTP II MATTER, whose main objective is to study and to quantify the triggering and controlling mechanisms of mass and energy transfer between the different compartments (land - sea, sea - atmosphere, water - sediment, living - non living, pelagos - benthos), in contrasting trophic environments (from eutrophic to oligotrophic) of the Mediterranean Sea and to investigate the ecosystem response to such a transfer.
Summary of processing methodologyData was processed with Simrad NEPTUNE system
