Abstract | M29 continued a long-term geoscientific study aimed at reconstructing the mass budget and current systems of the South Atlantic during the late Quaternary. Main topic of M29/3 was to investigate the particle sedimentation in the Brazil Basin, the equatorial high production zone and north of Gran Canaria. Though multibeam data was recorded no further acquisition information were provided. |
