Sedimentary processes in the head of the Cabo Polonio mega slide canyon (Southwestern Atlantic Margin off Uruguay).

Latin American Journal of Sedimentology and Basin Analysis, 2021
The Southwestern Atlantic margin is characterized by several canyon systems incised on a huge contourite depositional system associated with the interaction of strong Antarctic water masses with the seafloor. So far, however, only one mega slide canyon (

Heterogeneous Sediment Input at the Nankai Trough Subduction Zone: Implications for Shallow Slow Earthquake Localization

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Subducted sediment plays a key role in modulating pore pressure and seismic behavior at subduction zones. We investigated the seismic character of incoming sediments to test how sediment and basement variations relate to the along‐strike changes within ...

Mediterranean Outflow and surface water variability off southern Portugal during the early Pleistocene: A snapshot at Marine Isotope Stages 29 to 34 (1020-1135 ka) [PDF]

, 2015
Centennial-to-millennial scale records from IODP Site U1387, drilled during IODP Expedition 339 into the Faro Drift at 558 m water depth, now allow evaluating the climatic history of the upper core of the Mediterranean Outflow (MOW) and of the surface ...

Onset of Mediterranean outflow into the North Atlantic [PDF]

, 2014
Sediments cored along the southwestern Iberian margin during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 339 provide constraints on Mediterranean Outflow Water (MOW) circulation patterns from the Pliocene epoch to the present day.

Dispersion, Accumulation, and the Ultimate Fate of Microplastics in Deep-Marine Environments: A Review and Future Directions

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019
An estimated 8.3 billion tons of non-biodegradable plastic has been produced over the last 65 years. Much of this is not recycled and is disposed into the natural environment, has a long environmental residence time and accumulates in sedimentary systems

Physical Drivers and Dominant Oceanographic Processes on the Uruguayan Margin (Southwestern Atlantic): A Review and a Conceptual Model

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
The Uruguayan continental margin (UCM), located in the Southwestern Atlantic margin’s subtropical region, is positioned in a critical transitional region regarding the global ocean circulation (Río de la Plata (RdlP) outflow and Brazil-Malvinas ...

Sandy contourite drift in the late Miocene Rifian Corridor (Morocco):Reconstruction of depositional environments in a foreland-basin seaway [PDF]

, 2017
The Rifian Corridor was a seaway between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea during the late Miocene. The seaway progressively closed, leading to the Messinian Salinity Crisis in the Mediterranean Sea. Despite the key palaeogeographic importance

A Southern Portuguese Margin Perspective of Marine Isotope Stage 47—An Interglacial in the 41 kyr World

Atmosphere, 2022
In order to better understand interglacial climate variability within the 41 kyr world, we produced high-resolution climate records for interglacial Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 47 (1424–1452 ka) at IODP Site U1387 (36°48′ N, 7°43′ W) on the southern ...

Recognizing key sedimentary facies and their distribution in mixed turbidite–contourite depositional systems: The case of the Pacific margin of the Antarctic Peninsula

Sedimentology, 2022
Interplay of deep‐water sedimentary processes is responsible for building a myriad of features and deposits across mixed turbidite–contourite systems, from 200 km long sedimentary drifts.

The turbidite-contourite-tidalite-baroclinite-hybridite problem: orthodoxy vs. empirical evidence behind the “Bouma Sequence”

Journal of Palaeogeography, 2021
The underpinning problems of deep-water facies still remain unresolved. (1) The Tb, Tc, and Td divisions of the turbidite facies model, with traction structures, are an integral part of the “Bouma Sequence” (Ta, Tb, Tc, Td, Te).
