The maximum depth recorded in the 10 km distance from the breeding caves was 45 m isobath. |
The use of towed gears shall be prohibited within 3 nautical miles of the coast or within the 50 m isobath where that depth is reached at a shorter distance from the coast. |
The 2,500-meter isobath is the point or the line at which a 2,500-metre segment measuring depth arrives. |
On this expedition, they're collecting data for UNCLOS, specifically looking for the 2,500 m isobath and identifying where the continental shelf starts rising off Canada Basin. |
The connection with the SuIa Sgeir Fan is clearly marked by a re-entrant at the shelf edge, shown by the landward deviation of the 150 m isobath. |
The use of dredges for sponge fishing shall be prohibited within the 50 m isobath and shall not be undertaken within 0,5 nautical miles of the coast. |
