Morphotectonic Analysis of the East Manus Basin, Papua New Guinea

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Backarc basin systems are important sites of extension leading to crustal rupture where basin development typically occurs in rifting phases (or stages) with the final successful stages identified by the formation of spreading ridges and new oceanic ...

Hypsometry and Volume of the Arctic Ocean and Its Constituent Seas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This paper presents an analysis of the Arctic Ocean and its constituent seas for seafloor area distribution versus depth and ocean volume. The bathymetry from the International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean (IBCAO) is used together with limits ...

Stochastic modeling of seafloor morphology. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1991
One of the basic requirements for modeling ocean bottom scattering and acoustic reverberation is a realistic quantitative description of the seafloor. Because of the small scales usually required (say ∼1 m or smaller) for such modeling, deterministic descriptions of the seafloor are often prohibitive.

Automatic Pattern Recognition of Tectonic Lineaments in Seafloor Morphology to Contribute in the Structural Analysis of Potentially Hydrocarbon-Rich Areas

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
This work presents novel pattern recognition techniques applied on bathymetric data from two large areas in Eastern Mediterranean. Our objectives are as follows: (a) to demonstrate the efficiency of this methodology, (b) to highlight the quick and ...

Sea Beam Survey of an Active Strike-Slip Fault: The San Clemente Fault in the California Continental Borderland [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The San Clemente fault, located in the California Continental Borderland, is an active, northwest trending, right-lateral, wrench fault. Sea Beam data are used to map the major tectonic landforms associated with active submarine faulting in detail ...
