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
    Chapter 21 Biodiversity and conservation of wildlife and natural habitats Raúl Castroa, Ainhize Uriartea, Amalia Martínez de Murguíab and Ángel Borjaa a AZTI Foundation, Department of Oceanography and Marine Environment; Herrera Kaia, Portualdea s/n, Pasaia, Spain b Sociedad de Oceanografía de Gipuzkoa (AQUARIUM · Plaza Carlos Blasco de Imaz, s/n · 20003 San Sebastián) 21.1. 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).

RECENT CLIMATIC CHANGES IN THE SE BAY OF BISCAY AFFECTING PELAGIC AND COASTAL ECOSYSTEMS. V. VALENCIA1, A. FONTÁN1, A. BORJA1, N. GOIKOETXEA1 and J.

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.

Albumet har Gorillaz producerat tillsammans med James Ford och Remi Kabaka. ”The Now Now” präglas starkt av Gorillaz ursprung och endast ett fåtal gästartister syns i låtlistan. Gruppen består av de tidigare karaktärerna 2D (sång), Noodle (gitarr) och Russel Hobbs (trummor) med ett undantag från Murdoc Niccals (bas)somsitter fängslad, på bas syns istället den nya karaktären Ace från Gangreen Gang. “Humility” är den första låten från det kommande albumet och släpps samtidigt som musikvideon, i den medverkar Jack Black och en rullskridskoåkande 2D. Musikvideon är regisserad av Jamie Hewlett och filmades på Venice Beach i Kalifornien. Gorillaz skapades av Damon Albarn och Jamie Hewlett och albumdebuterade 2001. Sedan dess har de vunnit några av de mest prestigefulla priserna, bland andra BRIT Awards och the Grammys.
