contents During the Equamarge II cruise (February 4 to March 21, 1988), on board the R. V. "Jean Charcot", 12.500 kms of continuous geophysical profiling have been recorded along three sectors of the Equatorial Atlantic. Two segments ofthe West African transform margin have been intensively surveyed off Guinea and off Ivory Coast and Ghana. The active Romanche fracture zone has been surveyed in details on a distance of about 100 kms. These data (multibeam bathymetry, continuous seismic profiling, magnetism and gravity) have been supplemented by 16 geological stations (dredging and coring). This report gives a synthetic review of the onboard analysis and allows to better understand the geological structures of the three surveyed areas.
