Seismic amplitude response to internal heterogeneity of mass-transport deposits [PDF]
Compared to unfailed sediments, mass-transport deposits are often characterised by a low-amplitude response in single-channel seismic reflection images. This “acoustic transparency” amplitude signature is widely used to delineate mass-transport deposits ...

Trench sediment heterogeneity controls accretion mechanisms in subduction zone [PDF]
Trench basins related to an almost entirely subducted oceanic lithosphere are filled by deposits sourced from either the passive continental margin or the accretionary wedge.

Submarine mass wasting and associated tsunami risk offshore western Thailand, Andaman Sea, Indian Ocean [PDF]
2-D seismic data from the top and the western slope of Mergui Ridge in water depths between 300 and 2200 m off the Thai west coast have been investigated in order to identify mass transport deposits (MTDs) and evaluate the tsunamigenic potential of ...

Radiolarian assemblage from radiolarites of the Krš Gradac section (SW Serbia): On the way to a better reconstruction of the Middle-Late Jurassic geodynamic history of the Inner Dinarides [PDF]
The type section of the Gonje Formation (Krš Gradac, Sjenica area) is characterized by an abundance of radiolarian tests, which, however, are gene rally recrystallized and poorly preserved.

Free gas accumulations in basal shear zones of mass-transport deposits (Pearl River Mouth Basin, South China Sea): An important geohazard on continental slope basins [PDF]
Free gas is an important trigger of instability on continental slopes, and resulting mass-wasting strata can potentially form competent seals to hydrocarbon accumulations.
