Petrophysics of fine-grained mass-transport deposits: A critical review [PDF]
Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2020 Submarine slope failures and their products occur at variable scales on continental margins and island flanks. Here, we review the petrophysics of fine-grained mass-transport deposits (MTDs) from three representative regions: the Ulleung Basin from offshore Korea, the Ursa Region in the Gulf of Mexico, and the Amazon Fan in the Equatorial Brazil.

Styles of basal interaction beneath mass transport deposits [PDF]
Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2018 Abstract Erosion of the seafloor is often interpreted to be the result of turbidity currents and reflects their frictional and non-cohesive nature. However, evidence of the interaction between sediment gravity-flows and the substrate forming the sea floor has been increasingly reported in the literature.

IODP Expedition 333: Return to Nankai Trough Subduction Inputs Sites and Coring of Mass Transport Deposits [PDF]
Scientific Drilling, 2012 Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 333 returned to two sites drilled during IODP Expedition 322 on the ocean side of the Nankai Trough to pursue the characterization of the inputs to the Nankai subduction and seismogenic zone, as part of

3D seismic evidence of internal structure within Tampen Slide deposits on the North Sea Fan : are chaotic deposits that chaotic? [PDF]
, 2010 The seismic character of slide deposits is typically described as structureless or chaotic. However, 3D seismic data from the northern flank of the North Sea Fan reveal recognizable internal, penetrative structures within the Tampen Slide deposits.

Framework for Remote Sensing and Modelling of Lithium-Brine Deposit Formation
Remote Sensing, 2022 The demand for “green” metals such as lithium is increasing as the world works to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. More than half of the world’s lithium resources are contained in lithium-brine deposits, including the salt flats, or “salars”, of the ...

Geomorphological control on boulder transport and coastal erosion before, during and after an extreme extra-tropical cyclone [PDF]
, 2016 Extreme wave events in coastal zones are principal drivers of geomorphic change. Evidence of boulder entrainment and erosional impact during storms is increasing.

Kinematics of Mass Transport Deposits revealed by magnetic fabrics [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 AbstractThe internal deformation and movement directions of Mass Transport Deposits (MTDs) are key factors in understanding the kinematics and dynamics of their emplacement. Although these are relatively easy to recover from well‐bedded sediments, they are more difficult to deduce from massive beds without visible strain markers.
