Hi there. For the small dispersion of the debris on the seabed, the SHOM (Navy Hydrographic Services) produced during the 1st phase of the sea searches a 3D map of the currents in the area of interest, some slices (currents as a function of depth or currents 1000m-deep) are visible in
http://www.bea.aero/fr/enquetes/vol....hom.050609.pdf And other usefull parameters, like for the pingers detection, or about the nature of the seafloor, etc...
Also wondered about the opportunity to redeploy the search means in the area 1 previously being scanned: maybe to give some time to the Navy and Thales to refine their estimation, or provide new ones... while continuing the job that needs to be done (before the 25th of may) near the back drifted area. With the hope to go south again with new search directions.
