A detailed study of its bathymetric map and morphology permits to characterize three zones according to the scarps and crests distribution, together with their orientation and profile. These zones are separated by two morphologic traces, approximately E-W directed, interpreted as main tectonic lineamentspaAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Españahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Gibraltar ArcGibraltar StraitBathymetric mapOffshore morphologyTectonic lineamentsDiferenciación morfológica submarina en el área del Umbral del Estrecho de Gibraltar: resultados preliminaresOffshore morphological differentiation in the Gibraltar Threshold: preliminary resultsjournal articleopen access
