Abstract :
Remote sensing data from Monte Real sub-basin (onshore West-Central Portugal), collected by the LANDSAT 7 ETM+, JERS-1 (SAR) and Envisat (ASAR) satellites, are used with the purpose to give new insights relatively to the Monte Real salt-structure. The recognized pattern of the diapir and of the structural lineaments is in agreement with the geophysical and geological data.
