Seafloor bedforms in the Gulf of Cadiz. 3C

Image from ROV Argus showing bedforms in the distal furrow area of the upper contouritic terrace eroded by the Mediterranean Outflow Water in the continental slope of the Gulf of Cadiz. Ripple distribution with different crestlines, rectilinear to sinuous. Likewise, note that local variations in the topography produce changes in the orientation of the bedform. The composition of the ripples also appears to be different, as revealed by the colour.
