Trawling-Induced Sedimentary Dynamics in Submarine Canyons of the Gulf of Palermo (SW Mediterranean Sea)

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Bottom trawling in submarine canyons can affect their sedimentary dynamics, but studies addressing this topic are still scarce. In the Gulf of Palermo (NW Sicily, SW Mediterranean Sea), bottom trawling occurs on the continental slope, but principally ...

Persistent Ocean‐Shelf Transport Across the North West European Shelf Edge

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
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 ...

Slope Instability along the northeastern Iberian and Balearic continental margins [PDF]

, 2007
This paper gathers the available information on submarine landslides identified in the northeastern Iberian continental margin and presents new data on both already known landslides and new, previously unknown ones.

A Lithospheric Drip Triggered Green and Colorado River Integration

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
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?

Geophysical Research Letters, 1976
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.

Experimental Verification of a Two‐Dimensional Inverse Method for Turbidity Currents Using a Deep Neural Network

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2026.
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.

Parsimonious and Transferrable Parameterization of Reservoir Operations: A Modular Approach for Large‐Scale Modeling

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Accurately representing daily reservoir operations in large‐scale hydrological and water resource modeling remains challenging due to both the complex and unclear nature of real‐world operations and very limited availability of operation records for many reservoirs worldwide.

Quaternary gas hydrate dissociation promotes the formation of Shenhu Canyon Group in the South China Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science
The Baiyun deepwater region (Shenhu area) of the Pearl River Mouth Basin (PRMB), northern South China Sea (SCS), is characterized by the presence of abundant gas hydrate deposits and dense submarine canyons. However, the relationships between gas hydrate

Plio‐Pleistocene Antarctic Bottom Water Production in the Ross Sea Reconstructed From Hillary Canyon Levee Turbidites

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Dense shelf water (DSW) formed on Antarctica's continental shelves is a significant precursor for Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW), a critical component of global overturning circulation. We hypothesize that DSW cascades off the central Ross Sea shelf generated density currents that entrained sediment as they flowed down Hillary Canyon, resulting

Timing and Style of Tectonic Assembly and Exhumation of the McHugh Complex Within the Chugach‐Kodiak Accretionary Wedge, Alaska

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Accretionary complexes are key archives of subduction zone processes, preserving records of forearc growth, deformation, and tectonic reorganization. The Chugach–Kodiak accretionary complex of southern Alaska records Jurassic to Cretaceous underplating at shallow to intermediate subduction conditions. The McHugh Complex, an imbricated sequence
