Sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, Populations on Gulf of Alaska Seamounts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, were tagged and released on Gulf of Alaska seamounts during 1999–2002 to determine the extent, if any, of emigration from the seamounts back to the continental slope and of movement between seamounts.

Sources and transport of dissolved iron and manganese along the continental margin of the Bay of Biscay [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2007
Dissolved iron (DFe; <0.2 µm) and dissolved manganese (DMn; <0.2 µm) concentrations were determined in the water column of the Bay of Biscay (eastern North Atlantic Ocean) in March 2002.

Climate-controlled submarine landslides on the Antarctic continental margin

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Antarctica’s continental margins pose an unknown submarine landslide-generated tsunami risk to Southern Hemisphere populations and infrastructure. Understanding the factors driving slope failure is essential to assessing future geohazards.

Submarine landslides and canyons: slope degradation and shelf-edge indentation in a tectonically active margin (Finale Basin, Northern Sicilian Margin, Tyrrhenian Sea)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Submarine canyons and landslides are closely related geological features of continental margins. They prevail on the continental slope and often reach the shelf edge, indenting the continental shelf. The character of the linkage between submarine canyons

Benthic invertebrates that form habitat on deep banks off southern California, with special reference to deep sea coral [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
There is increasing interest in the potential impacts that fishing activities have on megafaunal benthic invertebrates occurring in continental shelf and slope ecosystems.

Seismic structure of the north-central Chilean convergent margin: Subduction erosion of a paleomagmatic arc [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We study the erosive convergent margin of north-central Chile (at similar to 31 degrees S) by using high-resolution bathymetric, wide-angle refraction, and multichannel seismic reflection data to derive a detailed tomographic 2-D velocity-depth model. In

Geomorphometric Seabed Classification and Potential Megahabitat Distribution in the Amazon Continental Margin

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The geomorphometry of the northeast portion of the Amazon Shelf, along the Brazilian Equatorial Margin (BEM), off the Amazonas River mouth, was analyzed using the Benthic Terrain Modeler, a spatial analysis technique that defines physical megahabitat ...

New hydroacoustic and core data reveal sediment transport patterns off Uruguay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Submarine landslides cause slope instabilities and might damage sea-floor infrastructure or even generate tsunami waves. Therefore it is of major importance to understand all processes related to gravity-driven mass wasting and slope stability at ...

The Antarctic Slope Current in a Changing Climate

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, 2018
The Antarctic Slope Current (ASC) is a coherent circulation feature that rings the Antarctic continental shelf and regulates the flow of water toward the Antarctic coastline.
