X‐ray computed tomography study of terrestrial analog cores in preparation for Mars sample return
Abstract Mars Sample Return (MSR) is expected to transform planetary science by providing unprecedented access to pristine Martian material. Initial characterization in the sample receiving facility (SRF) will rely on nondestructive techniques such as X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to document the condition, distribution, and internal features of ...

ABSTRACT The Gollum Channel System is a land‐detached large‐scale canyon‐channel system situated offshore southwest Ireland on the Northeast Atlantic margin. The system has been considered inactive with downslope gravity flows since the last glacial period, but geophysical data in some of its branches do suggest Holocene activity.

Ocean-bottom seismometers document how submarine landslides develop and grow
Submarine landslides reshape seafloor geomorphology, transport sediment and carbon to the deep-sea, and can trigger tsunamis or damage valuable seabed infrastructure. Yet, submarine landslides have never been directly observed in action. Here, we present

External forcings, oceanographic processes and particle flux dynamics in Cap de Creus submarine canyon, NW Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
Particle fluxes (including major components and grain size), and oceanographic parameters (near-bottom water temperature, current speed and suspended sediment concentration) were measured along the Cap de Creus submarine canyon in the Gulf of Lions (GoL;

ABSTRACT The pygmy right whale (Caperea marginata) is one of the least studied mysticete species. To shed light on its geographic and seasonal distribution, we compiled archival acoustic recordings from 26 sites across southern Australia and developed a deep‐learning detector for pygmy right whale “doublet” vocalizations.

Evolution of submarine canyons and hanging-wall fans: insights from geomorphic experiments and morphodynamic models [PDF]
Tectonics play a significant role in shaping the morphology of submarine canyons, which form essential links in source-to-sink (S2S) systems. It is difficult, however, to investigate the resulting morphodynamics over the long term.

High Resolution Mapping in support of UNCLOS Article 76: Seeing the seafloor with new eyes [PDF]
Since 2003, the Center for Coastal & Ocean Mapping/Joint Hydrographic Center at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) has been conducting multibeam mapping of many U.S.

Five monotypic genera of Rhaphidophoridae have been described from remote islands located south and east of New Zealand's South Island and surrounded by ocean for at least 100 km in all directions. These genera are Novoplectron Richards, 1958 from Chatham Islands; Ischyroplectron Hutton, 1896 from Bounty Islands; Notoplectron Richards, 1964 from ...
