Figure F2. Chronostratigraphic interpretation of different order depositional sequences in the Faro-Albufeira Drift. Legend for seismic horizons after Llave et al. (2011) and Stow et al. (2011). MIS = marine isotope stage, MPR = mid-Pleistocene revolution discontinuity, BQD = base Quaternary discontinuity. A. Sparker seismic profile indicating the main seismic units (Q-I and Q-II) within the Quaternary contourite sedimentary record (from Llave et al., 2001). B. 3.75 kHz seismic profile across the mounded Faro-Albufeira Drift indicating the main late Pleistocene seismic units (a–d; from Llave et al., 2006). C. TOPAS seismic profile across the Faro-Cádiz sheeted drift indicating the main seismic units within the main late Pleistocene seismic units (a–d; from Llave et al., 2006).
