Channel Confinement Drives Unidirectional Migration: Coupling of Flow Structure and Sedimentary Evolution in Combined Turbidity–Bottom Current Flows

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Along-slope bottom currents and down-slope (gravity-driven) turbidity currents coexist in the ocean and interact during their flow processes. The interaction between turbidity currents and bottom currents plays a crucial role in determining the lateral ...

Of sands and corals : the sedimentary environment of the Darwin Mounds, N. Rockall Trough [PDF]

, 2005
The Darwin Mounds, small mounded features colonised by deep-water coral species such as Lophelia pertusa and Madrepora oculata, are found in the Northern Rockall Trough, at water depths between 900 and 1100 m.

Glacial-interglacial sedimentation control on gas seepage exemplified by Vestnesa Ridge off NW Svalbard margin

Frontiers in Earth Science
Vestnesa Ridge is built-up of thick contourites mainly deposited during the last ∼5 million years. Methane leaks from deep gas reservoirs creating pockmarks on its crest, and which have been the focus of numerous studies.

Erosion and deposition in interplain channels of the Maury channel system [PDF]

, 1981
Large turbidity currents originating on the insular margin of southern lceland have flowed clown a 2 500 km-long pathway comprising rise valleys, unchanneled plains and segments of erosional and depositional deep-sea channels that are collectively called

Recent contourites in the Alboran Sea

, 2012
Critical reviews of the available seismic records and analyses of CTD data in the Alboran Sea have changed the previous interpretations about the types of deposits making up the nearsurface sediments of the Alboran Sea. During the last 20 years many studies about sedimentation in the Alboran Sea suggested that turbiditic fans, gravitative deposits and ...
