  • Marine Benthic Cartography of the Cap De Creus (NE Catalan Coast, Mediterranean Sea)
    Scientia Marina 76(1) March 2012, 159-171, Barcelona (Spain) ISSN: 0214-8358 doi: 10.3989/scimar.03101.18D Marine benthic cartography of the Cap de Creus (NE Catalan Coast, Mediterranean Sea) RAFAEL SARDÁ 1, SERGI ROSSI 2, XAVIER MARTÍ 3 and JOSEP MARIA GILI 4 1 Centre d’Estudis Avançats de Blanes (CEAB-CSIC), Carrer d’accès a la Cala Sant Francesc, 14, 17300 Blanes, Girona, Spain. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals (ICTA), Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), UAB Campus Cn s/n, 08193 Cerdanyola del Vallés, Barcelona, Spain. 3 Departament de Medi Ambient i Habitatge, Generalitat de Catalunya, Diagonal 523-525, 08029 Barcelona, Spain. 4 Institut de Ciències del Mar (CSIC), Passeig Marítim de la Barceloneta, 37-49, 08003 Barcelona, Spain. SUMMARY: The marine benthic cartography of the Cap de Creus and surrounding areas (NW Mediterranean Sea) was obtained by combining classical grabbing methods with more recent imaging methods based on a remotely operated vehicle. The goals of this particular survey can be summarized as follows: 1) to chart the benthic communities (and the area of each one); 2) to evaluate the benthic diversity of the areas; 3) to produce visual documentation of the distributions of the benthic organisms; 4) to identify human-induced pressures on the benthic environment; 5) to make recommendations for future management based on the visual assessment; and 6) to set up a new methodology for making large biocenosis maps that would help to manage marine protected and non-protected areas. The marine environment off the Alt Empordà County was shown to have a very rich diversity of benthic habitats.

BY ELINOR FISH Days PHOTOS BY CHRIS HUNTER The author passes by Sant Pere de rodes monastery on the steep hillside of Verdera mountain overlooking Port de la Selva. Our guide from Running Costa Brava Tours, Pablo Rodriguez, is easily recognizable in the Girona’s bustling train terminal. Not because I’ve met him before or seen his photo; rather, I recognize him in the way a runner recognizes another runner. Pablo is wearing a crimson hydration vest over a well-worn, sweat- stained technical T-shirt with grey shorts, his sockless feet in pancake-flat yellow running shoes that scream running geek. His bald head shines as brightly as his eyes when we make visual con- tact. He bounds towards me, deer-like, with a light and springy gait. “Welcome to Catalunya!” he says.
