Microscope images of methane-derived authigenic carbonate from Submarine structures in the mid-Irish Sea Area of Search
Microscope images of methane-derived authigenic carbonate from Submarine structures in the mid-Irish Sea Area of Search (CEND 11/08). This survey, carried out on the Cefas Endeavour research vessel, used acoustic data and groundtruthing to identify and delineate the extent of the Annex 1 habitat "Submarine structures made by leaking gases" in the Submarine structures in the mid-Irish Sea Area of Search (AoS) and the extent and sub-type of the Annex 1 habitat "Reefs" in the Solan Bank AoS, as well as recording any new habitat types discovered.
