Mediterranean Scientific Drilling Prospectives
Granada, Spain, June 1999, 192 p.
Outcome of a meeting, coordinated by Dr Jean Mascle, Chairman of the CIESM Committee on Marine Geosciences, which took place in Granada with the participation of some 25 researchers from twelve
countries.
This workshop reviewed the interests of scientists active in different Mediterranean Sea Geoscience fields which may be resolved by drilling, and prospected for new proposals to be prepared for the next phase (beyond 2003) of International Scientific Drilling (if any), based on both standard drilling and riser drilling tools.
