Marine surveys
Please see below thanks, for a marine survey.
Multivariate analysis indicated a slightly varied macrofaunal community, which was confirmed by the low overall similarity level of approximately 29%.
Two clusters were obtained through a similarity dendrogram, separating station ENV_18 and ENV_15B from the rest, possibly due to different particle size characteristics found at the respective sites.The overall impression of the macro-invertebrate community was of an Atlantic fauna typical for the depth gradient and water temperature with small specimens and low individual number.
Water quality profiling over a large 32 km area indicated a very consistent water column structure with halo/thermoclines in the surface 50metres and mixed water below.
The salinity profile indicated a maximum at depth (ca 150m), with surface waters indicative of some slightly freshwater influence.
Water quality sampling, undertaken at 5 sites and 4 water depths down to the seabed, indicated low level concentrations in all parameters indicative of a blue water environment.

entorno de alta mar
Otra opción, junto con "entorno de mar abierto".
Quizás "mar abierto" es un poco más ambiguo, ya que en zonas costeras que dan al océano se podría hablar de "mar abierto", pero no sería "alta mar", que indica más profundidad.
