| Abstract | The primary objective of the cruise M66/3a was deep sampling of mud diapirs and carbonate mounds, large numbers of which have been found off Costa Rica and Nicaragua. These structures are a major element in the recycling of volatiles and fluids on this erosive continental margin, therefore they are in the focus of the work of several subprojects of the SFB 574. Though multibeam data was recorded, it was not the main focus of the cruise and no further information have been provided by the responsible party. |
