Submarine depositional terraces at Salina Island (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea) and implications on the Late-Quaternary evolution of the insular shelf [PDF]
, 2018 The integrated analysis of high-resolution multibeam bathymetry and single-channel seismic profiles around Salina Island allowed us to characterize the stratigraphic architecture of the insular shelf.

Growth history of fault-related folds and interaction with seabed channels in the toe-thrust region of the deep-water Niger delta [PDF]
, 2015 The deep-water fold and thrust belt of the southern Niger Delta has prominent thrusts and folds oriented perpendicular to the regional slope that formed as a result of the thin-skinned gravitational collapse of the delta above overpressured shale.

Similarities between rivers and submarine channels [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2013 Scientists have long known that the width and depth of rivers follows a power law relationship with discharge. They have also noticed that submarine channels appear to be similar to terrestrial rivers, but there have not been many systematic comparisons of the relationships between submarine channel morphology and discharge. Konsoer et al. compared the

Sedimentary processes and architecture of Upper Cretaceous deep-sea channel deposits : a case from the Skole Nappe, Polish Outer Carpathians [PDF]
, 2018 Deep-sea channels are one of the architectonic elements, forming the main conduits for sand and gravel material in the turbidite depositional systems.

Channel network scaling laws in submarine basins [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2007 Fluvial drainage basin area is often related to channel length and local slope through power law relationships and the relatively small range of exponents observed in these relationships is thought to result from physical mechanisms. Proposed mechanisms assume that the observed correlation between drainage area and fluid discharge is caused by ...

Effect of Winding Steel Wire on the Collapse Pressure of Submarine Hose
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The submarine hose plays a vital role in the single-point mooring system and is a necessary channel for medium transportation. Once crushed under the load of the seawater external pressure, it will cause oil and gas leakage and major safety accidents. It

Eighty years of food-web response to interannual variation in discharge recorded in river diatom frustules from an ocean sediment core. [PDF]
, 2017 Little is known about the importance of food-web processes as controls of river primary production due to the paucity of both long-term studies and of depositional environments which would allow retrospective fossil analysis.

Seabed gas emissions and submarine landslides off SW Taiwan
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2018 Methane emissions out of the seabed could seriously affect Earthâs climate and are usually associated with the dissociation of gas hydrates stored in marine sediments on the continental margins.
