Morphology of Salina offshore (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we present the first complete morphological map of the Salina offshore at a scale of 1:100,000. The submarine flanks of the Salina edifice extend down to −650 to −1300 m, are steep and characterized by an uneven morphology due to the ...

Growth history of fault-related folds and interaction with seabed channels in the toe-thrust region of the deep-water Niger delta [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Supercritical flows overspilling from bypass‐dominated submarine channels and the development of overbank bedforms

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2020
Overbank deposits of submarine channels are typically thin‐bedded, fine‐grained and predominantly characterized by a series of sedimentary structures interpreted to record a relatively simple history of waning flow. Here, a new type of bedform indicative

Quantifying the relationship between structural deformation and the morphology of submarine channels on the Niger Delta continental slope

open access: yesBasin Research, 2020
The processes and deposits of deep‐water submarine channels are known to be influenced by a wide variety of controlling factors, both allocyclic and autocyclic.

Sedimentary processes and architecture of Upper Cretaceous deep-sea channel deposits : a case from the Skole Nappe, Polish Outer Carpathians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Deep-sea channels are one of the architectonic elements, forming the main conduits for sand and gravel material in the turbidite depositional systems.

Submarine depositional terraces at Salina Island (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea) and implications on the Late-Quaternary evolution of the insular shelf [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Morphodynamics of submarine channel inception revealed by new experimental approach

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Suspended sediment currents travel through channels on the ocean floor to deliver enormous volumes of sediment to the deep ocean. Here, using a new approach for scaled laboratory experiments, the authors show how feedback between these currents and their

Channel network scaling laws in submarine basins [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical 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 ...
