Cascades in Mediterranean Submarine Grand Canyons [PDF]
Oceanography, 2009 18 pages, 8 figures, 1 box.-- Special Issue on HERMES. Continuous monitoring of water-column and near-bottom hydrosedimentary processes in the Mediterranean Sea over the last 15 years has resulted in a novel view of the functioning of this land-locked sea.

Tidal oscillations at the head of Monterey Submarine Canyon and their relation to oceanographic sampling and the circulation of water in Monterey Bay. Annual report, Part 6, September 1972 [PDF]
, 1972 During a 25-hour hydrographic times series at two stations near the head of Monterey Submarine Canyon, an internal tide was observed with an amplitude of 80 to 115 m in water depths of 120 and 220 m respectively.

Towards a new and integrated approach to submarine canyon research. Introduction [PDF]
, 2014 Submarine canyons, steep-walled valleys that cut across virtually every continental margin around the world (Harris and Whiteway, 2011), are considered major sediment transport pathways between continental shelves and the deep sea (e.g., Shepard, 1963 ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The South American Advances in Submarine Canyons Studies and Their Link to the Ocean Decade
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 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.

Survival of a submarine canyon during long-term outbuilding of a continental margin [PDF]
, 2016 Net-depositional submarine canyons are common in continental slope strata, but how they survive and prograde on constructional margins is poorly understood.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study presents that the WRF model, coupled with bulk urban parameterization, effectively captures the summer urban heat island (UHI) patterns across the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East, showing stronger night‐time surface UHIs (5°C–6°C) and daytime surface cool islands (up to 12.5°C).

Distribution of Gassy Sediments and Mud Volcanoes Offshore Southwestern Taiwan
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2006 This study presents the results from recent intense marine geophysical surveys conducted offshore of southwestern Taiwan. Mud volcanoes and gassy sediments have been identified along chirp sonar and seismic reflection profile data.

Influence of the summer deep-sea circulations on passive drifts among the submarine canyons in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2019 Marine biophysical models can be used to explore the displacement of individuals in and between submarine canyons. Mostly, the studies focus on the shallow hydrodynamics in or around a single canyon.
