Several differences can be stablished in the lower slope and the transition to the Horseshoe and Sena Abyssal Plains. The lower slope in the Horseshoe sector shows an upper convex - lower concave profile and the transition to the abyssal plain is marked by a scarp related to the activity of a main NE-SW reverse fault. Whereas in the Sena sector the lower slope appears as a convex profile and the region boundary with the abyssal plain is determined by the position of the external front of the Allochthonous Betic-Rif Units.spajournal articlehttp://www.sociedadgeologica.es/publicaciones_geotemas.htmlopen access551.24MorphologyStructureNeotectonicsGulf of CadizNorth AtlanticGeodinámica2507 Geofísica
