Dataset identification

Title of datasetSeafloor bedforms in the Gulf of Cadiz. E
Narrative summary of datasetVideoframe of seafloor displaying bedforms affecting sandy deposits in the continental slope of the Gulf of Cadiz, just downstream of the Strait of Gibraltar: starved sand ribbons with superimposed ripples resting on the rocky surface that are also colonized by sponges. This image highlights obstacle marks formed by sponges.. Note that current direction is responsible for tails, bars and ripples formation and is coincident with suspended sediment transport direction.
Summary of processing methodologyThese photograms were extracted in readable form from videos recorded using the ARGUS ROV from EMEPC (Portugal).
