Turbidite systems in the Alboran Sea. (a)–(d) Multibeam bathymetry showing the architecture of the turbidite systems on the present-day seafloor of
the Alboran Sea. (a) La Linea, Guadiaro, Baños, Torrenueva, and Fuengirola in the western sector of the Iberian Margin. (b) Salobreña, Sacratif, and Calahonda
in the central sector. (c) Almería in the eastern sector. (d) Al-borani and Piedra Escuela on the southern
flank of the Alboran Ridge. (e)–(g) Single-channel
seismic records showing the main acoustic facies that characterise the architectural elements (canyon, leveed channel, and lobe) of the turbidite systems. The
blue seismic boundary refers to the base of the Quaternary deposits. Modified from Ercilla et al. (2019)
