Bottom Current Modification of Turbidite Lobe Complexes [PDF]
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Submarine lobes form at the distal end of sediment gravity flow systems and are globally important sinks for sediment, anthropogenic pollutants and organic carbon, as well as forming hydrocarbon and CO2 reservoirs.

Prevalence of strong bottom currents in the greater Agulhas system [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2013 Deep current meter data and output from two high-resolution global ocean circulation models are used to determine the prevalence and location of strong bottom currents in the greater Agulhas Current system.

Analysis of mooring-observed bottom current on the northern continental shelf of the South China Sea
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 The bottom current is an important component of the three-dimensional ocean circulation, which is of significance for the safeties of ocean bottom engineering and facilities, the research on sediment and pollutant transports, and the ecological ...

Unveiling the contourite depositional system in the Vema Fracture Zone (Central Atlantic)
Scientific Reports, 2023 A combination of a high sediment input and intense bottom currents often leads to the formation of contourites (sediments deposited or significantly reworked by bottom currents). Both of these components are present in the Vema Fracture Zone valley which

Distribution of the sedimentary cover in the Equatorial segment of the Atlantic Ocean
Вестник Камчатской региональной ассоциации "Учебно-научный центр". Серия: Науки о Земле, 2021 The thickness of the Atlantic Equatorial segment sedimentary cover decreases with the distance from the continental source of mass removal and increases slightly with the distance from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR).

Developing bottom drifters to better understand the stranding locations of cold-stunned sea turtles in Cape Cod Bay, Massachusetts [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Every fall, juvenile sea turtles in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean are threatened by rapidly declining water temperatures. When sea turtles become hypothermic, or cold-stunned, they lose mobility—either at the surface, subsurface, or the bottom of the ...
