Depositional evolution of the upper Miocene complex. ABSTRACT To achieve net‐zero carbon emissions by 2050, gigatonnes of CO2 must be captured and stored in the subsurface. Screening and exploration of prospective storage sites have thus gained momentum in recent years.

Deep-water bottom current dynamics: processes, products & challenges [PDF]
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.

Bedform Growth Beneath Periodic Internal Solitary Waves Propagating Through a Tidal Flow
Abstract Internal solitary waves (ISWs), ubiquitous to lakes and coastal oceans, have often been proposed as a mechanism for generating subaqueous sandwaves. Yet, the physical mechanisms underlying ISW‐driven bedform growth remain poorly understood.

The Agulhas Ridge, South Atlantic: the peculiar structure of a fracture zone [PDF]
The Agulhas Ridge is a prominent topographic feature that parallels the Agulhas-Falkland Fracture Zone (AFFZ). Seismic reflection and wide angle/refraction data have led to the classification of this feature as a transverse ridge.

The mediterranean overflow in the Gulf of Cadiz: a rugged journey [PDF]
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.

Benthic Foraminifera as Proxies in Contourite Drift Systems
Benthic foraminifera are highly adaptable to a wide range of environments, which makes them excellent tools for the reconstruction of palaeoenvironments. Certain species prefer regions with significantly increased current velocities, such as present in contourite drift systems (CDS).
