What is the slope of the U.S. continental slope?

Geology, 1996
Extensive high-resolution, multibeam bathymetry of five U. S. continental margins provides new, detailed information about the angle of continental slopes in different sedimentary and tectonic settings. The steepest continental slope examined is the passive-carbonate west Florida slope (4.4{degree} regional slope and 12.0{degree} mean local slope). The

The Shaping of Continental Slopes by Internal Tides

Science, 2002
The angles of energy propagation of semidiurnal internal tides may determine the average gradient of continental slopes in ocean basins (∼2 to 4 degrees). Intensification of near-bottom water velocities and bottom shear stresses caused by reflection of semi-diurnal internal tides affects sedimentation patterns and bottom gradients, as indicated by ...

The variability of mixing at the continental slope

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1990
Abstract The benthic boundary layer on the continental slope is a region in which isopycnal surfaces intersect topography. It is, in consequence, particularly subject to variability caused by reflecting internal gravity waves, as well as by trapped baroclinic slope waves. Observations made using an array of moorings off the west slope

The Scottish continental slope current

Continental Shelf Research, 1983
Abstract A four-month record from a current meter mooring on the continental slope west of Scotland displayed a steady northward current of 0.16 m s−1 which appears to be associated with a core of warm light water normally observed over the shallow side of the slope. Although the tides change considerably between deep water and the continental shelf,

Continental Slopes and Shelves

The Geographical Journal, 1941
AROUND every continent is a relatively flat but gradually shelving sub-?~^-marine belt running out from the low tide mark. Its width varies greatly, but it is usually between 50 and 150 miles; its outer edge is arbitrarily but conveniently defined by the 100-fathom line.

Eddy formation on a continental slope

Journal of Marine Research, 1997
We consider a uniform-density ocean in which the depth-independent horizontal velocity is driven by a two-gyre wind. Numerical solutions of the governing vorticity equation reveal that the solutions with a flat ocean bottom differ greatly from those in which a continental shelf and slope are present along the western boundary. In the ocean basin with a

Carbonates of the Louisiana Continental Slope

Offshore Technology Conference, 1987
ABSTRACT The continental slope off central Louisiana has' extremely complex surface topography as well as subsurface structures that are primarily inherited from salt tectonics, with other features generated by differential sedimentation, erosion, and mass movement.
