Of sands and corals : the sedimentary environment of the Darwin Mounds, N. Rockall Trough [PDF]
The Darwin Mounds, small mounded features colonised by deep-water coral species such as Lophelia pertusa and Madrepora oculata, are found in the Northern Rockall Trough, at water depths between 900 and 1100 m.

Detection and correction of inclination shallowing in deep sea sediments using the anisotropy of anhysteretic remanence [PDF]
Paleomagnetic data from recent Pleistocene to recent deep sea sediments from the continental rise of eastern North America exhibit a cyclical inclination shallowing, up to 30° with respect to the geocentric axial dipole value. This shallowing is strongly

Thousands of cold-water coral mounds along the Moroccan Atlantic continental margin : distribution and morphometry [PDF]
Coral mounds formed by framework-forming cold-water corals pierce the seabed along most continental margins of the Atlantic Ocean and new sites are continuously being discovered.

The age and origin of the central Scotia Sea [PDF]
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

Bulk Mineralogy of Pleistocene Mediterranean Outflow Water Contourites at IODP Site 1387 [PDF]
Expedition 339 of the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program collected ocean sediment cores at seven localities in the Gulf of Cadiz and on the West Iberian margin, a contourite deposition system (CDS) influenced by the Mediterranean Outflow Water (MOW).

Contourites and gravity deposits of Faro Drift (Gulf of Cadiz): sediment provenance
[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.
