Abstract

The impacts of global change on the marine environment have caused serious damage to the Mediterranean Sea, especially benthic communities. This dissertation focuses on one of the coralligenous systems belonging to the National Park of the Cabrera Archipelago, an area of great ecological value in the environment of the Balearic continental shelf. Data obtained through acoustic remote sensing techniques, an extraordinary tool for the analysis and modelling of certain areas of the planet that are difficult to explore, such as the marine environment and the ocean floor, have been used to carry out the research...
