Typically, salt-influenced deep-water successions are poorly imaged in seismic reflection data, and exhumed systems are rare, hence the detailed sedimentology and stratigraphic architecture of these systems remains poorly understood. The exhumed Triassic (Keuper) Bakio and Guernica salt bodies in the Basque–Cantabrian Basin, Spain, were active during deep-water sedimentation. The salt diapirs grew reactively, then passively, during the Aptian–Albian, and are flanked by deep-water carbonate (Aptian–earliest Albian Urgonian Group) and siliciclastic (middle Albian– Cenomanian Black Flysch Group) successions. The study compares the depositional systems in two salt-influenced minibasins, confined (Sollube basin) and partially confined (Jata basin) by actively growing salt diapirs, comparable to salt-influenced minibasins in the subsurface.

  • Biodiversity and Conservation of Wildlife and Natural Habitats

Introduction: the international legislative framework Marine biodiversity management includes both species conservation and marine habitats, by means of an increasing international legislative framework. The international treaties include: the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, signed in Washington on 03/03/1973 (CITES; www.cites.org); the Convention on Migratory Species, signed in Bonn on 23/06/79 (CMS); the Ramsar Convention of Wetlands, signed in Ramsar on 02/02/1971 (Ramsar); the Convention on Biological Diversity (Biodiv), signed in Rio de Janeiro on 05/06/1992; and the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling, signed in Washington on 02/12/1946 (IWCoffice). On the other hand, the Spanish Government signed the Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats, in Bern on 19/09/1979 (Bern Convention), a regional treaty for the European conservation of wildlife and the natural environment, by means of inter-state cooperation. The Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the North-East Atlantic (OSPAR Convention) was signed also by Spain in Paris, on 22/09/1992. Finally, the Convention for the Afroeuroasiatic Migrating Aquatic Birds Conservation was signed in La Hague, on 15/08/96 (BOE nº 256, 11/12/01).

  • NESTOR BASTERRETXEA. BIOGRAFIA AUTOR Nacido En
    NESTOR BASTERRETXEA. BIOGRAFIA AUTOR Nacido en Bermeo (1924), la Guerra Civil española empuja a su familia a un temprano exilio en 1936, residiendo en diversos lugares de Francia hasta 1941. El estallido de un nuevo conflicto, la II Guerra Mundial, le deparará un segundo exilio que les conduce a Buenos Aires, Argentina (1942). Sus cualidades naturales en la técnica del dibujo le permitieron desarrollar una formación autodidacta y el acceso a su primer trabajo; con apenas 20 años obtuvo su primer empleo en ultramar como dibujante publicitario. En 1952 hace un viaje personal a Europa y retoma el contacto con Jorge Oteiza. Animado por este se presentará al concurso de los Murales de la Cripta de la nueva Basílica de Arantzazu (Oñate), donde trabaja ya el propio Oteiza. Al ganar el concurso se ponían a su disposición unos 650 m² de superficie total repartidos en 18 murales. Este es uno de los capítulos más agri-dulces de la vida del artista, ya que supuso un gran espaldarazo profesional enfrentarse a este encargo pero cuyo capítulo final provocaría un gran disgusto. Trabajó en ellos con entusiasmo durante más de dos años, pero se cerró en falso al suprimir la orden franciscana, en una sola noche, la mayor parte de su trabajo por considerar el resultado inadecuado. En palabras de Edorta Kortadi se trataba de “Bocetos de carácter simbólico expresionista siempre sobre una poética cubista heredada de los pintores vascos de preguerra y de Picasso, […] base de aquella pintura recia y construida que él había proyectado para los muros”. Su rabioso expresionismo no fue entendido por los promotores eclesiásticos.

E-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Applied Physics II, Fac. of Science and Technology, University of the Basque Country, Barrio Sarriena s/n, 48940-Leioa (Spain). Abstract Troughout the last decade, several regime shifts and anomaly patterns for different climatic indices (ENSO, NAO, EA, etc.) have been described, due to unusual values and/or persistent cumulative anomalies. For the inner (southeastern) Bay of Biscay, the prevalence of positive values of the East Atlantic (EA) pattern, since 1998, affects the transport and subsequent properties of the upper water masses. The mesoscale effect, related mainly to the intensification of the British Isles low atmospheric pressure centre, drives also the moisture transport, storm frequency and intensity, etc. As a consequence of the shift in the EA pattern, several structural factors of the coastal and pelagic ecosystems show seasonal and/or annual anomaly patterns, in recent years. For instance, assessment of the recruitment of the Bay of Biscay anchovy, as well as of the benthic communities (macroalgae, barnacles, etc.), based upon climatic and oceanographic variables, show also responses to these anomaly patterns. Factors such as the turbulence-stability and upwelling-downwelling dualities; saline stratification and coastal fertilisation by precipitation and continental runoff; and other coupled oceano-meteorological variables are considered.
