Mapping of geomorphology, seabed substrate and nearshore habitats within the Ascension Island Marine Protected Area [PDF]

Seamounts are important ecosystems as they have a major influence on physical oceanography, which in-turn influences the pelagic and benthic communities found on and around them (e.g., Clark et al., 2010).

Modeling and forecast of gas hydrate distribution in the Black Sea: main principles and approaches

Frontiers in Earth Science
Gas hydrates are prevalent in marine sediments in regions characterized by certain bathymetry, geomorphology, lithology, and physics (i.e., low temperature and high pressure conditions).

Ocean-bottom seismometers document how submarine landslides develop and grow

Communications Earth & Environment
Submarine landslides reshape seafloor geomorphology, transport sediment and carbon to the deep-sea, and can trigger tsunamis or damage valuable seabed infrastructure. Yet, submarine landslides have never been directly observed in action. Here, we present

Distribution of Iron Sheet Sand in Chengdao Area

Haiyang Kaifa yu guanli
Iron plate sand is a special sedimentary geomorphology existing in the underwater delta of the Yellow River. It is formed by the widespread development of silt beds on the seabed, resulting in a distinct hard layer of sedimentand is commonly called "iron

Local Erosion–Deposition Changes and Their Relationships with the Hydro-Sedimentary Environment in the Nearshore Radial Sand-Ridge Area off Dongtai, Northern Jiangsu

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The radial sand-ridge field off the Jiangsu coast is a distinctive landform in a strongly tide-dominated environment, where sediment supply and geomorphic patterns have been profoundly altered by Yellow River course changes, reduced Yangtze-derived ...

Flow and likely scour around three dimensional seabed structures evaluated using RANS CFD

, 2007
When a structure is placed on the seabed, tidal or other marine current induce areas of flow acceleration and deceleration. This may result in movement of the seabed substrate (often sand) near the structure.
