چکیده انگلیسی
This study investigates the geometry and temporal variation of a prominent gas bubble stream from a seafloor pockmark in the Lower Congo Basin. We present results of a 3D gridding approach of singlebeam echosounder water column data (Parasound 18â¯kHz) that increases the lateral resolution and improves the localization of anomalies beyond the inherent depth-dependent footprint size of the sonar system. This allows a detailed reconstruction of gas bubble trajectories through the water column, revealing a stable gas bubble stream for the deepest 1000â¯m. The bubbles are shifted laterally by â¼200â¯m in the transition zone between North Atlantic Deep Water and Antarctic Intermediate Water with a reconstructed current velocity of â¼4â¯cm/s. The direction of lateral shift varies throughout the â¼15â¯h survey possibly because of internal waves and small-scale eddies at the water mass boundary. Furthermore, a stacking of SBES water column data acquired during sampling stations showed a periodic variation in seepage intensity with periods of 6 and 8â¯min, which are likely related to temporally modulated gas supply to the sea floor. Singlebeam echosounder are commonly limited by their small coverage of the survey area during individual passes and their footprint size in detailed imaging of individual seep sites, especially in the deep sea. The presented gridding method for singlebeam echosounder data may facilitate the use of such data in deep water gas bubble stream identification and localization.
