Description:
The coastal systems, are often subjected to high anthropogenic pressure, which makes it necessary to develop new techniques to assess the environmental impacts caused by such human activity. This paper presents the first results obtained during the development and implementation of a new equipment of submarine geophysics survey oriented to integrated coastal zone management (ICZM). It is based on the drag of a submarine in contact with the sea-bottom. The submarine is equipped with an electromagnetic sensor which allows the measurement of the magnetic susceptibility and electrical conductivity of the surface sediments continuously and to a depth of sediment of 40 cm. This system, once improved, will allow us to obtain valuable information for monitoring the environmental quality of coastal areas.
