| Extreme marine environments cover more than 50% of the Earth’s surface and offer many opportunities for investigating the biological responses and adaptations of organisms to stressful life conditions. Extreme marine environments are sometimes associated with ephemeral and unstable ecosystems, but can host abundant, often endemic and well-adapted meiofaunal species. In this review, we present an integrated view of the biodiversity, ecology and physiological responses of marine meiofauna inhabiting several extreme marine environments (mangroves, submarine caves, Polar ecosystems, hypersaline areas, hypoxic/anoxic environments, hydrothermal vents, cold seeps, carcasses/sunken woods, deep-sea canyons, deep hypersaline anoxic basins [DHABs] and hadal zones).... |

| The topographical and hydrological complexity of submarine canyons, coupled with high substratum heterogeneity, make them ideal environments for cold-water coral (CWC) habitats. These habitats, including reefs, are thought to provide important functions for many organisms. The canyons incising the continental slope of the Bay of Biscay have distinct morphological differences from the north to the south. CWCs have been reported from this basin in the late 19th century; however, little is known about their present-day distribution, diversity and environmental drivers in the canyons. In this study, the characteristics and distribution of CWC habitats in the submarine canyons of the Bay of Biscay are investigated. Twenty-four canyons and three locations... |

| Submarine canyons are major geomorphic features of continental margins around the world. Several recent multidisciplinary projects focused on the study of canyons have considerably increased our understanding of their ecological role, the goods, and services they provide to human populations, and the impacts that human activities have on their overall ecological condition. Pressures from human activities include fishing, dumping of land-based mine tailings, and oil and gas extraction. Moreover, hydrodynamic processes of canyons enhance the down-canyon transport of litter. The effects of climate change may modify the intensity of currents. This potential hydrographic change is predicted to impact the structure and functioning of canyon communities as well... |

| We analyzed the acoustic data obtained with a multibeam echosounder during an oceanographic survey abroad the “R/V Miguel Oliver” in january-february of 2010. The aim was mapping the sea floor of the continental slope of the uruguayan Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The acoustic data were processed with MB-System software, and then incorporated into a Geographic Information System (Quantum GIS). We obtained 3 m for 3 m grid files to describe small submarine structures (mounds and pockmarks), and also a topographic map of the entire area to describe large submarine structures (submarine canyons and landslides). When we analyzed the topography of the entire area we identified 4 submarine canyons and the beginning of a fifth in the south end. We also observed... |

| Se analizaron los datos hidroacústicos obtenidos con la ecosonda multihaz Simrad EM-302 a bordo del B/O Miguel Oliver en la campaña 01-2010 durante enero-febrero de 2010. El objetivo fue mapear el fondo oceánico de parte de la plataforma y talud de la Zona Económica Exclusiva (ZEE) uruguaya. El procesamiento fue realizado mediante los softwares libres MB-System y GRASS GIS. Con los datos corregidos se obtuvieron grillas de 3 X 3 m para describir las formaciones del fondo y de 1/8mn x 1/8mn para realizar un mapa topográfico y otro batimétrico (con isóbatas cada 100 m) de toda el área de estudio. Se realizó además una base de datos de las principales formaciones observadas (elevaciones y depresiones) conteniendo imágenes, posición y dimensiones (altura... |
