Abstract - A summary of methodologies, technical details and ship-board results of a swath bathymetry, geophysical and geological survey in the Andrew Bain F.Z., SW Indian Ocean is presented. The cruise was done in a cooperative framework between PNRA and GIN-RAS, and utilized the R/V Strakhov of GIN-RAS. The F.Z. from 52S to 44S was investigated. During the survey, detailed, full coverage bathymetry, multichannel, single channel and SBP reflection seismic, magnetometric, gravimetric lines, bottom sampling were carried out in the Area.

Sommario - Vengono presentati le metodologie e l'insieme dei risultati ottenuti durante una campagna di rilievi batimetrici e geofisici nella zona di frattura Andrew Bain nell'Oceano Indiano occidentale. La crociera e' parte del Progetto nazionale Ricerche in Antartide, ed e' stata utilizzata la nave da ricerca R/V Strakhov del GIN-RAS. La zona della Frattura da 52S a 44S e' stata investigata. Si e' ottenuta una mappa batimetrica dettagliata con sistema 'multibeam', sono state fatte indagini di sismica a riflessione multicanale e SBP ad alta risoluzione, sono stati raccolti dati magnetometrici ed e' stato campionato il fondo marino .
