Abstract

In the past few decades, the Black Sea has been the subject of intense geological and geophysical studies, including deep seismic sounding, reflection profiling, gravity and magnetic surveys for scientific and petroleum exploration purposes (Nikishin et al. 2010; Soson et al. 2010; Stephenson and Schellart 2010).
