Title of dataset | Seafloor bedforms in the Gulf of Cadiz. 3B |
Narrative summary of dataset | Image from ROV Argus showing bedforms in the distal furrow area of the upper contouritic terrace eroded by the Mediterranean Outflow Water in the continental slope of the Gulf of Cadiz. Section of a sandy dune with superimposed sinuous to linguoid ripples several centimetres in height. The ripples are roughly perpendicular to the dune crestline and flow in different directions. The differences in the sediment colour are explained by different sand fraction compositions, whereby the lighter particles are composed of biogenic debris. |
Summary of processing methodology | Autocorrelation between data from video and telemetry from the ROV |
