Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Multifactorial Controls on the Dongdaobei Submarine Canyon System, Xisha Sea, South China Sea
The submarine canyons system is the most widely distributed geomorphic unit on the global continental margin. It is an important concept in the field of deep-water sedimentation and geohazards.

ASSESSING LANDSLIDE-TSUNAMI HAZARD IN SUBMARINE CANYONS, USING THE COOK STRAIT CANYON SYSTEM AS AN EXAMPLE [PDF]
Tsunami generated by submarine landslides are now recognised as an important hazard, following several historical events. Submarine landslides can occur in a variety of settings such as on continental slopes, volcanic slopes, and submerged canyons and ...

Laboratory Studies of Internal Solitary Waves Propagating and Breaking over Submarine Canyons
This paper carried out laboratory experiments to study evolution of internal solitary waves (ISWs) over submarine canyons with a combination of PIV (particle image velocimetry) and PLIF (planar laser-induced fluorescence) techniques.

Suspension and transportation of sediments in submarine canyon induced by internal solitary waves
The submarine canyon was the main channel for the transport of sediment to the deep sea, but the transport process in submarine canyon induced by internal solitary waves (ISWs) had not yet been conducted. Based on computational fluid dynamics, this study

Cross-canyon variability in zooplankton backscattering strength in a river-influenced upwelling area [PDF]
Zooplankton are a key component of food webs in upwelling systems. Their distribution is influenced not only by mesoscale and climate dynamics but also by topography and local currents.

The north Brazil undercurrent and the wind driven hydrodynamics in Japaratuba submarine canyon, Brazil [PDF]
The circulation induced by the wind and the North Brazil Undercurrent (NBU) in and surrounding the Japaratuba submarine canyon on the continental shelf of the basin of Sergipe and Alagoas is described using numerical modeling.

Clathrate hydrate crystallization
Abstract Clathrate hydrate crystallization has been an area of interest to chemical engineers from the point of view of crystal structure, thermophysical properties, phase equilibria, kinetics, industrial applications, and environmental (climate change) implications.

Ecological Role of Submarine Canyons and Need for Canyon Conservation: A Review [PDF]
الأخاديد البحرية هي السمات الجيومورفية الرئيسية للحواف القارية في جميع أنحاء العالم. أدت العديد من المشاريع الحديثة متعددة التخصصات التي ركزت على دراسة الأخاديد إلى زيادة فهمنا بشكل كبير لدورها البيئي، والسلع والخدمات التي تقدمها للسكان البشريين، وتأثيرات الأنشطة البشرية على حالتهم البيئية العامة.
