Abstract | The sea-bottom relief in the area of the Flemish Banks has been studied with the help of a side-scan sonar. A description of all detected bedforms is given and an isometric map of the recorded features is presented. Finally a residual sedimentdynamic analysis is made based on the geometric characteristics of the seabottom structures. |
