The South American Advances in Submarine Canyons Studies and Their Link to the Ocean Decade
Submarine canyons have a relevant role in marine ecosystems. They are responsible for oceanographic conditions such as variability of temperature and salinity, sediment transport, nutrients, and even pollutants amongst marine areas.

Rule-based semi-automated tools for mapping seabed morphology from bathymetry data
Seabed morphology maps and data are critical for knowledge-building and best practice management of marine environments. To facilitate objective and repeatable production of these maps, we have developed a number of semi-automated, rule-based GIS tools ...

Pipeline–Seabed Interaction [PDF]
AbstractA review of the existing research on the interaction between a pipeline and an erodible bed exposed to waves and/or currents is presented. The review covers three topics: scour, liquefaction, and lateral stability of pipelines. The basic mechanism that leads to scour in two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) cases is first described ...

Freespan Analysis for Subsea Pipeline Integrity Management Strategy
Over a rough seabed or on seabed subject to scour, freespans can occur when contact between a subsea pipeline and the seabed is lost over an acceptable distance.

This chapter aims at adding to this discussion by comparing metallurgic ores with the other major deep seabed resources phosphorites and gas hydrates. Comparing the subsectors could yield additional insight and information. Deep seabed mining must therefore be considered a significant new and emerging use of the global ocean.
