During the PROMESS campaign (summer 2004) a borehole (PRGL1) was drilled in the upper slope of the Gulf of Lions. Previous studies showed that the deposition of the sedimentary units at borehole PRGL1 was determined by changes in the discharge of the Rhone river, induced by sea level and climate var...
