ABSTRACT

This paper presents a geomorphological map of the seafloor north east of the Maltese Islands (Central Mediterranean) at a scale of 1:50,000. The map was compiled following the integration, analysis and interpretation of several high-resolution seafloor bathymetry datasets. Several structural features, coastal and marine landforms and anthropogenic features have been mapped. Most of the mapped submerged landforms – including fluvial, gravity-induced and karst landforms – appear to have been formed during the sea-level lowstand of the last glacial cycle. The map provides valuable insights on the submerged landscape of the Maltese Islands and its evolution since the Last Glacial Maximum.

地中海中部马耳他群岛东北部海底地貌

摘要

本文提供了比例为 1:50,000 的马耳他群岛(地中海中部)东北部海底地貌图。该地图是在对几个高分辨率海底测深数据集进行整合、分析和解释之后编制的。已经绘制了若干结构特征、沿海和海洋地貌以及人为特征。大多数绘制的淹没地貌——包括河流地貌、重力诱发地貌和喀斯特地貌——似乎是在最后一次冰川周期的海平面低位形成的。该地图提供了关于马耳他群岛水下景观及其自末次盛冰期以来的演变的宝贵见解。
