| Abstract: | The Mediterranean is a semi-enclosed marginal sea with sea-beds up to 5000 m deep (the maximum depth is 5121 m in the Matapan-Vavilov Deep, off the Southern coast of Greece, with an average depth of 2500 m). It harbours most of the same distinctive biodiversity key geomorphologic structures in other regions of the world such as submarine canyons, seamounts, mud volcanoes or deep trenches (WWF/IUCN, 2004). |
