The seismic atlas of the Messinian markers in the Mediterranean and Black seas is a collective work summarizing, in one publication with a common format, the most relevant seismic features related to this exceptionnal event. Seismic information has been collected over many years from the offshore domain. Throughout 13 study areas, the seismic facies, geometry and extent of the Messinian markers (surfaces and depositional units) are described. The absolute time succession of the Messinian events, or the processes responsible for their occurrence in space and time are not discussed. The objectives of this atlas are: (1) to image the Messinian seismic markers from the main margins and basins; (2) to propose a new global and consistent terminology for these markers in the entire offshore Mediterranean area and (3) to make this information accessible to the non-geophysicist community. Interpreted seismic data were carefully selected according to their quality, position and significance in order to reach these objectives, and are presented here. Raw and interpreted seismic profiles are available on CD-Rom. The atlas costs 20 euros and can be ordered online here: http://ccgm.org/en/home/148-seismic-atlas-of-the-messinian-salinity-crisis-markers-2853630978.html or http://www.geosoc.fr/publication/memoires/memoires-nouvelle-serie.html

Detailed analysis of high-resolution seismic, bathymetric and magnetic data allowed determination of the origin of the submarine topography, distribution of the sedimentary units, morphology of the basement and offshore continuation of the tectonic structures identified onshore. The present-day morphological features of the shelf are mainly related to the latest post-glacial deposits. Off the Bouillante bay, a thick sedimentary deposition has induced an important widening of the shelf, thus hiding the real morphology of the basement. The sedimentary cover has recorded two major erosions - low sea-level phases, the last one being correlated with the last 20 ky glacial maximum. The main faults, offshore the geothermal field anomaly, have been mapped. The N160°W escarpment, which bounds the shelf, may be a major si...

L’analyse de l’imagerie révèle que Mayotte est un massif volcanique de plus de 4400 m de hauteur, avec de larges canyons qui incisent toute la pente insulaire, de nombreux édifices volcaniques sous-marins et des glissements de grande ampleur dans le Nord-est et le Sud-Ouest. Des falaises abruptes limitent de vastes plateaux sous-marins dans l’Ouest de Mayotte.

Although most of the deformation is located along the subduction zone, several faults cutting the arc could be active structures. In the Guadeloupe archipelago (French Caribbean), possible active faults have been proposed either onshore and offshore. The FAGUAD and AGUADOMAR cruises yielded crucial observations on tectonic structures such as the Marie-Galante Graben. Unfortunately the resolution of geophysical data was not sufficient to clearly identify traces of recent to active tectonic deformations. Moreover, the strong erosion shaping these tropical islands limit exhaustive observations of onshore tectonic activity. To evaluate the possibility of active faulting near the Guadeloupe-Marie Galante Islands, the BRGM (French Geological Survey) carried out, in December 2003, the GEOBERYX campaign. Th...
