Purpose
Abstract During R/V POSEIDON Cruise POS499 several mud volcanoes from 4 regional areas of the Calabrian Arc have been investigated.. During R/V METEOR cruises M112 and M111 this area of the Calabrian Arc has been extensively mapped with state of the art deep sea echo sounder KONGSBERG EM122. Therefore, vessel mounted mapping has not been a major target on this cruise. Nevertheless, within a total of 230 hours, 880 km mostly along the north western rim have been mapped.
