The work included the study of parts of the data obtained during the survey cruise WESTMAR 78, described in a preliminary report (Brett & Zarudzki, 1979). The data consist of 10 741 km seismic reflection profiles obtained with sparker, sub-bottom, airgun and boomer systems; 8474 km of bathymetric profiles, 3894 km of sidescan sonar profiles and 8545 km of magnetic profiles. The study objectives in the area and its subdivision were established at an early stage.
