BATHYMETRY

The grid of the multibeam lines acquired during the 22 days of operation in the study area are presented in Figures 7,9, 10 and 11.

A surface of approximately 1300 km$^2$ was covered in the surveyed areas during the cruise. Mapping on board was performed by using the PDS-2000 production DTM, converted to ASCII, filtered by ISMAR's routine filter_bat, gridded by the nearneighbor GMT routine. The latter grids were used for navigation and structural analysis.

Figures 18 and 19 show examples of the acquired bathymetric data.
