摘要: This report maps and analyzes the bathymetry seafloor reflectivity characteristics along northwest African margin between 3° 23°N. The bathymetric trends strongly suggest that morphology associated with mid-ocean ridge (MOR) spreading system strikes north throughout area mapped (north of ~10°N).
