Resumé
The analysis of multichannel seismic profiles reveals that the distribution of sedimentary depocenters within the Protector and Pirie basins of the southern Scotia Sea, close to the Scotia-Antarctica plate boundary, is largely due to the morpho-structural control of the basement and influenced by the distribution of bottom currents. Both basins constituted a good example of small isolated and undernourished deep basins, lacking major continental inputs and under the influence of active bottom currents related to both the Antarctic Circumpolar deep Water and the Weddell Sea Deep Water.
