[Coral-List] multibeam

[Kerim Ben Mustapha]

Dear colleagues,
I'm tunisian marine biologist working on sponges and on benthic habitats (seagrass and coralligenous), In order to let 
tunisia be more rational regarding the management of its benthic habitats towards a better conservation strategy, the 
Institute of Marine and Technology researchs (INSTM -Minister of Research and Technology)  has just published an 
international call for tender regarding the acquisition of a multibeam echo sounder (bi frequencies). The multibeam will 
allow us to map seagrass meadows off the gabes gulf (up to 60 m depth through the 400 khz) and coral/coralligenous bio 
concretion mapping (up to 400 m through the 200 kHz). Thank you for forwarding this information Sincerely
Karim Ben Mustapha
