Cartographie biomorphos├®dimentaire du golfe normano-breton (1987) au 1/25000
Description
This biomorphosedimentary mapping of the Normandy-Brittany gulf has been drawn up according to the “carte biomorphosédimentaire de la zone intertidale au 1/25000, côte Ouest du Cotentin et Baie du Mont Saint-Michel” published in 1987 in the form of 7 maps. These maps constitute a summary of the studies carried out by the group “Estrans et Zones humides” within the framework of the Integrated Regional Studies of the Normandy-Brittany gulf. This research work was conducted under the aegis of Ifremer, in cooperation with the Geomorphology Laboratory of the “Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes” of Dinard and the Botany Laboratory of Rennes University.
The prime feature of the map is the presentation of a morphosedimentary seabed through the main biosedimentary units which have been observed on the entiretidal zone, and this is supported by a multitude of field surveys.
These maps were digitised in 2005, as part of the REBENT programme, i.e. the surveying network for the Benthic fauna and flora. These maps have been grouped together in digital form in one set of data. The original legend is transferred to the “ORIG_HAB” attribute data field. The harmonisation with the EUNIS typology is in progress, as part of the REBENT and Interreg-MESH programmes.
