Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 27-82., 2021

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

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
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]

open access: yesScience of Tsunami Hazards, 2016
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

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
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

open access: yesThe Physics of Fluids
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]

open access: yesOcean Science
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.

Novel Application of a Compound-Specific Stable Isotope (CSSI) Tracking Technique Demonstrates Connectivity Between Terrestrial and Deep-Sea Ecosystems via Submarine Canyons

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Studies have shown the importance of submarine canyons as conduits of land-derived organic carbon beyond the coastal shelf into the deep-sea where a single obvious river source can be identified.

The north Brazil undercurrent and the wind driven hydrodynamics in Japaratuba submarine canyon, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2020
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

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
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.
