Earth science field work: Role and status [PDF]
This essay contends that the outstanding contributions currently being made to the earth sciences by theoretical and laboratory endeavors increase rather than decrease the need for sound field observations.

Persistent Ocean‐Shelf Transport Across the North West European Shelf Edge
Abstract Transport mechanisms between the deep ocean and adjacent continental shelf seas play an important role in the spatial distribution of nutrient delivery to the coastal ocean and in the temporal variability of shelf biogeochemical processes. Along the North West European Shelf (NWES) edge, nutrient‐rich waters of oceanic origin are found below ...

Deep-water turbidites as Holocene earthquake proxies: the Cascadia subduction zone and Northern San Andreas Fault systems [PDF]
New stratigraphic evidence from the Cascadia margin demonstrates that 13 earthquakes ruptured the margin from Vancouver Island to at least the California border following the catastrophic eruption of Mount Mazama.

Bottom-trawling along submarine canyons impacts deep sedimentary regimes [PDF]
Unidad de excelencia María de Maeztu MdM-2015-0552Many studies highlight that fish trawling activities cause seafloor erosion, but the assessment of the remobilization of surface sediments and its relocation is still not well documented.

A Lithospheric Drip Triggered Green and Colorado River Integration
Abstract The integration of the Green and Colorado Rivers shifted the continental drainage divide of North America, marking a key event in the hydrological and biogeographical evolution of the continent. Sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence shows that for integration to occur, the Green River likely cut through the Uinta Mountains between 8 and ...

Submarine canyons: Internal wave traps?
Kinetic energy of water currents near the axis of La Jolla submarine canyon is enhanced in a broad frequency band above tidal frequencies and below the Väisälä frequency when compared with water motions nearby but not within the canyon. This energy appears to be derived from first mode internal waves over the adjacent continental shelf.

Abstract Turbidites have been widely studied as indicators of the occurrences and magnitudes of paleo‐tsunamis and paleo‐earthquakes. Inversion to estimate flow conditions from turbidites offers valuable insights into the magnitudes of paleo‐seismic and tsunami events.

Species Trends in Sport Fisheries, Monterey Bay, Calif., 1959-86 [PDF]
Three surveys spanning 28 years were examined for changes in species caught by recreational fishermen from small boats (skiffs) and commercial passenger fishing vessels (CPFV's) in California's Monterey Bay region.
