Abstract

Cruise CAGE21-5 had as main objective to test the Marchetti dilatometer [D Marchetti, 2018; S Marchetti, 2015] for in-situ measurements of horizontal pressure at various sites along the continental margins, where methane seepage passes from being highly active to inactive.

The cruise may be known as : CAGE21_5
