dc.description.abstract | A nearly 400-km-long erosion channel through the Strait of Gibraltar has been interpreted as evidence for a catastrophic
refll of the Mediterranean at the end of the Messinian salinity crisis, 5.33 million years ago. This channel extends from
the Gulf of Cadiz to the Algerian Basin and implies the excavation of ca. 1000 km3
of Miocene sediment from the Alboran
Basin and bedrock from the Strait of Gibraltar. The fate of these eroded materials remains unknown. In a frst attempt
to predict the distribution of those food deposits, we develop a numerical model to simulate the transport of material
eroded from the Strait of Gibraltar. It is a Lagrangian model based upon standard sediment transport equations which
is able to simulate suspended and bed load sediment transport. Water circulation during the food was obtained from
a hydrodynamic model of the whole Mediterranean Sea previously developed by the authors and applied to the Zan clean food. Five particle sizes were considered for suspended load and three for bed load transport. Areas of sediment
deposition in the Mediterranean Sea were determined. In the case of suspended load, these are related to hydrodynamic
conditions: areas sheltered from the jet of incoming water by local topography and areas where water currents abruptly
decrease due to a sudden increase in water depth. In the case of bed load transport, sediments follow water streamlines
and deposits are much more localized than in the case of suspended load. Single channel seismic records were also
analysed to identify and characterize food-related deposits in the eastern Alboran Sea. | es |
