Cel "OCEANSEIS is based on the recent discipline of Seismic Oceanography, which consists on the use of multichannel seismic reflection technique, traditionally used for geological prospection, to oceanic exploration. Temperature and salinity contrasts between oceanic water layers allow MCS technique to image the thermohaline fine structure with vertical and horizontal resolution on the order of 10 m. This high horizontal resolution provides new information about the lateral coherence and horizontal characteristics of the fine structure and its interaction with mesoscale structures. Since thermohaline structure is controlled by mixing dynamics, Seismic Oceanography leads to improve qualitative and quantitative understanding of temporal and spatial variations in ocean mixing processes and how they are controlled by larger scale features. The OCEANSEIS' objectives are: i) Calculation of oceanographic parameters (temperature and salinity) from seismic reflection data by inversion methods adapted to oceanographic scenarios; ii) Detailed study of seismic reflectors and its relation with the mixing processes that create them; iii) Optimization of the multichannel seismic reflection experiments for oceanographic demands.During the outgoing phase, OCEANSEIS will allow the research applicant to acquire high-level training in physical oceanography and to enhance her expertise in signal processing and inversion geophysical methods at the Department of Oceanography of theDalhousie University (Halifax, Canada). During the incoming phase of the project, the applicant will return to the European research group of Seismic Oceanography, in the Spanish National Research Council (Barcelona, Spain), and contribute with the new acquired skills, knowledge and international contacts."
