Marine Sediment Record of Eruption‐Fed Vertical Density Currents, Kermadec Arc (Rangitāhua)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Products of explosive volcanism can be transported into the oceans, where they form marine tephra layers. The processes responsible for their deposition are often complex, involving multiple transport mechanisms. During the RV Investigator voyage IN2022‐V02 (2022), a 35‐cm‐thick marine tephra unit was piston‐cored at 2,460 m water depth in the

Regional Variations in Sea Ice and Primary Productivity in the Bering Sea During Marine Isotope Stage 11

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11 (424–374 ka) has long been an analog for Holocene climate because it is the most recent interglacial period with similar orbital conditions. However, there is global and regional variability in the climate response to MIS 11 warmth.

New Insights Into Hikurangi Subduction Inputs and Megathrust Host Rocks Spanning Along‐Margin Changes in Fault Slip Behavior

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The seismic behavior of subduction megathrusts varies spatially and is influenced by the properties of subducting plates, including their sedimentary cover. Characterizing these subduction inputs is essential for understanding the mechanisms behind fault slip variability.

Laurasian Seaway History During the Early Jurassic From Quantitative Mineralogy and Detrital Zircon Dating

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The Laurasian Seaway comprises a N‐S oriented trans‐Pangaean corridor linking Tethys to the Boreal Sea during the Jurassic, and direction of water flow has been the subject of considerable debate. The Llanbedr (Mochras Farm) borehole, Cardigan Bay Basin, Wales, is a uniquely informative record that comprises an expanded deep‐marine silty ...

Seismic Stratigraphy of the Peruvian Forearc Drifts from 3° to 7°S: Identification and Influence of Lower Layers of the Humboldt Current System

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The seafloor morphology and subsurface geometry of a late Neogene contourite drift located along the Peru margin is documented for the first time using multibeam bathymetry, two‐dimensional and three‐dimensional seismic data. Along the margin several submarine canyons incise the shelf and slope.

Increasing impact of North Atlantic Ocean circulation on sedimentary processes along the passive Galicia Margin (NW Spain) over the past 40 million years

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Off the Northwestern Iberian Peninsula, the vigorous bottom-current regime interacts with a complex seafloor topography inside the Galicia Interior Basin (GIB), which was tectonically shaped during the opening of the North Atlantic Ocean basin in ...

Palaeolandscape reconstruction of a shallow coastal embayment in Kattegat, Denmark—influence of sea‐level changes during the latest Pleistocene and Holocene

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 560-584, April 2026.
We analyse the geological processes of a coastal embayment in the Kattegat. Using high‐resolution seismic data and sediment cores, we describe a geological evolution from glacial to shallow marine stages with a variety of preserved facies from different depositional settings, including glacio‐lacustrine, telmatic, limnic and coastal environments.

Evaluating the possible role of bottom currents and internal waves in shaping seafloor morphology in a mesophotic reef

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 593-619, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Mesophotic reefs are located in low light conditions which, depending on the region, are usually found in water depths greater than ~30 m. They are less affected by ocean warming than reefs found in shallower water depths and thus might become increasingly important for the sustainability of marine biodiversity.

Interaction of internal waves with the seafloor on the Namibian shelf (SE Atlantic Ocean): Implications for seafloor geomorphology

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Over geological timescales, internal waves play a significant role in shaping the seafloor morphology. They generate nepheloid layers, slope‐parallel channels and escarpments with erosional surfaces. Abstract The long‐term impact of internal waves on sedimentation and seafloor geomorphology remains poorly constrained.

Seismic Stratigraphy of Eocene–Recent Mixed Depositional Systems on the SE New Zealand Continental Margin, Great South Basin

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
The continental margin of SE New Zealand is strongly influenced by the Southland Current and associated water masses. This new seismic stratigraphic study of the margin has revealed a range of depositional mounds and erosional channels that document the close interaction of turbidity and bottom currents in shaping the margin from the Mid‐Eocene onward.
