Mass wasting at the base of the South central Chilean continental margin: the Reloca Slide [PDF]

, 2009
Offshore south central Chile (35° S–42° S), the morphology of the lowermost continental slope and trench floor witnesses a voluminous submarine mass-wasting event.

Late Miocene to early Pliocene stratigraphic record in northern Taranaki Basin: Condensed sedimentation ahead of Northern Graben extension and progradation of the modern continental margin [PDF]

, 2004
The middle Pliocene-Pleistocene progradation of the Giant Foresets Formation in Taranaki Basin built up the modern continental margin offshore from western North Island.

Ongoing Inversion of a Passive Margin: Spatial Variability of Strain Markers Along the Algerian Margin and Basin (Mediterranean Sea) and Seismotectonic Implications

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Subduction initiation is an important but still poorly documented process on Earth. Here, we document one of a few cases of ongoing transition between passive and active continental margins by identifying the geometrical and structural signatures that ...

Post-rifting magmatism at the northern margin of the South China Sea: Evidenced by an ocean bottom seismometer experimentKey points

Earthquake Science
Magmatism at continental margins is of great significance in understanding the continental rifting. We present a two-dimensional P-wave velocity model derived from an ocean bottom seismometer experiment, conducted across the middle northern continental ...

RV Pelagia Cruise 64PE219, 05 Nov – 24 Nov 2003. TOBI surveys of Setubal and Nazarre Canyons and of the MV Prestige wreck site, west of Iberia [PDF]

, 2003
The main objective of the cruise was to collect TOBI sidescan sonar imagery over three areas of the continental margin west of Iberia, where sediment transport studies are being undertaken as part of the EC funded ‘EUROSTRATFORM’ project. The three study

Body Wave Speed Structure of Eastern North America

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
The eastern, passive margin of the North American continent is more heterogeneous than originally envisioned. Imaged by teleseismic body wave arrivals, both compressional Vp and shear Vsh, the lithospheric mantle of the stable, eastern North America ...

Sedimentation processes on the Antarctic continental margin at Kapp Norvegia during the Late Pleistocene [PDF]

, 1986
Sedimentological analyses concerning ice rafted debris, grain size distribution, biogeneous components, and clay mineral composition of four sediment cores from the Antarctic continental margin off Kapp Norvegia reveal a cyclical pattern of three ...
