Deep-water bottom current dynamics: processes, products & challenges [PDF]
, 2013 Contourites are deep-water sedimentary deposits created under the influence of predominantly along-slope bottom currents. They are considered to be excellent deep-water recorders of global climatic change.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract Continental breakup involves multiple extension styles; each linked to unique structural and sedimentary processes. High‐angle, low‐angle, listric and antilistric normal faults develop at different stages and positions during rifting. The Bay of Biscay and its margins, a prototypical example of magma‐poor rifted margins during Jurassic ...

The mediterranean overflow in the Gulf of Cadiz: a rugged journey [PDF]
, 2017 The pathways and transformations of dense water overflows, which depend on small-scale interactions between flow dynamics and erosional-depositional processes, are a central piece in the ocean's large-scale circulation.

A Paleotectonic Atlas of the African Plate: Permian to Recent
Journal of Petroleum Geology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 231-279, October 2025.ABSTRACT The fragmentary release of petroleum data defining the deep structure and stratigraphy of African basins has been integrated with existing literature to compile 19 tectonic maps over key geological intervals from Permian to Recent times. African plate margins range in their age of opening from Late Triassic (off Lebanon), through Early/Middle ...

Authigenic Uranium Preservation and Bottom Water Oxygenation in the Scotia Sea
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract Sedimentary uranium (U) and thorium (Th) isotopes are invaluable proxies to assess bottom water redox conditions, site‐specific sediment focusing and vertical rain rates. We investigate if authigenic uranium (aU) can serve as a proxy for bottom water ventilation at International Ocean Discovery Program Site U1537 in the Scotia Sea and we ...

Seasonal changes in glacial polynya activity inferred from Weddell Sea varves [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2014 The Weddell Sea and the associated Filchner–Rønne Ice Shelf constitute key regions for global bottom-water production today. However, little is known about bottom-water production under different climate and ice-sheet conditions.

New hydroacoustic and core data reveal sediment transport patterns off Uruguay [PDF]
, 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 age and origin of the central Scotia Sea [PDF]
, 2010 Opening of the Drake Passage gateway between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans has been linked in various ways to Cenozoic climate changes. From the oceanic floor of Drake Passage, the largest of the remaining uncertainties in understanding this opening is
