The work included the study of parts of the data obtained during the survey cruise WESTMAR 78, described in a preliminary report (Brett & Zarudzki, 1979). The data consist of 10 741 km seismic reflection profiles obtained with sparker, sub-bottom, airgun and boomer systems; 8474 km of bathymetric profiles, 3894 km of sidescan sonar profiles and 8545 km of magnetic profiles. The study objectives in the area and its subdivision were established at an early stage.

Single channel, analogue, seismic reflection profiles using Sparker and small capacity Air gun sources were used to investigate late Tertiary and Quaternary sedimentation both around the margins and on the floor of the north Rockall Trough. The data complement, by being intermediate in penetration and resolution, previous seismic studies; particularly, they allow the upper 500 m of the sediment sequence to be examined in greater detail than hitherto.
