Ocean-current controlled sedimentation: the Lofoten Contourite Drift, Norwegian Sea
Geological Society, London, Memoirs, 2016Sediment deposition from ocean-bottom or contour currents leads to the development of contourite drifts. On the continental slope offshore of Norway, contourite drifts have developed from sediment deposition from the alongslope-flowing Norwegian Current which brings warm and saline water masses into the Norwegian Sea. The present pattern of circulation

Contourite drifts on early passive margins as an indicator of established lithospheric breakup
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2014The Albian–Cenomanian breakup sequence (BS) offshore Northwest Iberia is mapped, described and characterised for the first time in terms of its seismic and depositional facies. The interpreted dataset comprises a large grid of regional (2D) seismic-reflection profiles, complemented by Industry and ODP/DSDP borehole data.

Contourites and gravity deposits of Faro Drift (Gulf of Cadiz): sediment provenance
2018[ES] Se analizan los depósitos del Pleistoceno de los sondeos U1386 y U1387 obtenidos en la Expedición 339 IODP en los depósitos (drift) de Faro para caracterizar: a) las litofacies, b) identificar los criterios más útiles para distinguir entre contornitas y depósitos de flujos por gravedad y c) determinar la procedencia de sedimentos.

The shallow-water contourite drift formation in the Kara Sea
Океанология / OceanologyThe bottom sediments of the upper part of the contourite drift located in a narrow linear depression belonging to the central part of the Kara Sea shelf were studied for the first time. According to the grain size distribution of the sediments, the drift belongs to the muddy contourites.

The role of submarine landslides in the initiation and evolution of moat–drift contourite systems
SedimentologyABSTRACT Moat–drift contourite systems, formed by interaction of alongslope bottom currents with bathymetric features, provide critical insights into palaeoceanographic changes. However, the role of submarine landslides in their initiation and evolution remains poorly understood.
