摘要: The northern Egyptian continental margin is characterized by interesting tectonic settings as well trade and industry district in Egypt. In the current study, contribution role of satellite altimetry gravity data Environmental geophysical investigation presented to give a complete view marine field study area. showed only minor deviations some partial regions area investigated such Nile Deep Sea Fan, Levant Basin, Eratosthenes Seamount Herodotus basin. interpretations entire illustrated that differences between shipboard were small particularly near land. Furthermore, number strong spatially correlated with bathymetric depth together appearance geological structures.
