Hydroacoustic Monitoring of Mayotte Submarine Volcano during Its Eruptive Phase

Geosciences
Submarine volcanoes are more challenging to monitor than subaerial volcanoes. Yet, the large eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano in the Tonga archipelago in 2022 was a reminder of their hazardous nature and hence demonstrated the need to ...

The Effects of Controlling Gas Escape and Bottom Current Activity on the Evolution of Pockmarks in the Northwest of the Xisha Uplift, South China Sea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Submarine pockmarks are typical indicators of submarine gas escape activity. The deep strata of the Xisha Uplift are rich in biogenic and thermogenic gas, accompanied by strong bottom current activity.

Benthic biology influences sedimentation in submarine channel bends: Coupling of biology, sedimentation and flow

The Depositional Record
Submarine channels are key features for the transport of flow and nutrients into deep water. Previous studies of their morphology and channel evolution have treated these systems as abiotic, and therefore assume that physical processes are solely ...

Magnetic Characterization of Sediment Source‐To‐Sink Processes in the Bengal Fan Since 45 ka

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The Bengal Fan is the largest submarine fan on Earth with a complex submarine channel system. Therefore, it is challenging to understand the evolution of Bengal Fan sediment source‐to‐sink processes.

Development and distribution of submarine channels associated with sediment gravity flows in the modern Huanghe (Yellow River) subaqueous delta

Frontiers in Marine Science
BackgroundGravity-driven depositional processes play a pivotal role in shaping the geomorphology of subaqueous deltas worldwide, particularly by eroding the seafloor, leading to the formation of rugged submarine channels (SCs) and triggering various ...

Performance Improvement of Underwater Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution via Photon Subtraction

Entropy, 2019
Considering the ocean water’s optical attenuation is significantly larger than that of Fiber Channel, we propose an approach to enhance the security of underwater continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD).

Sedimentary Characteristics and Evolution of the Late Miocene to Quaternary Tributary Channels in the Head of Bounty Channel, New Zealand

Applied Sciences
The Bounty Channel is a large-scale submarine channel system located in the eastern continental margin of New Zealand. Extending along the axis of the Bounty Trough, the channel system comprises three main tributaries (C1–C3) at its head, which merge ...

Research on the Water Inrush Mechanism and Grouting Reinforcement of a Weathered Trough in a Submarine Tunnel

Buildings
Based on the structural and geological characteristics of the F1 weathering trough of a submarine tunnel and its spatial relationship with the cavern, a simplified calculation model of the weathering trough water inrush was established, and the formation,
