Research on the architecture of submarine-fan lobes in the Niger Delta Basin, offshore West Africa
As one of the most important reservoirs in submarine fan, submarine lobes are hot fields for the deep-water oil–gas exploration in the world. Although a large amount of researches have been carried out on the architecture model of submarine lobes ...

Swath Mapping on the Continental Shelf and Slope: The Eel River Basin, Northern California [PDF]
First Paragraph The STRATAFORM program sponsored by the Office of Naval Research (Nittrouer and Kravitz, 1996, this issue) seeks to understand how sedimentary processes lead to the formation of the stratigraphic sequences on continental margins.

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.

Submarine and Subaerial Morphological Changes Associated with the 2014 Eruption at Stromboli Island
Stromboli is an active insular volcano located in the Southern Tyrrhenian Sea and its recent volcanic activity is mostly confined within the Sciara del Fuoco (SdF, hereafter), a 2-km wide subaerial–submarine collapse scar, which morphologically dominates

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

The onset of grasses in the Amazon drainage basin, evidence from the fossil record [PDF]
Poaceae (the grass family) originated in the Cretaceous, but first dominate the palynological records of the Amazon drainage basin (ADB) in the Neogene (23 to 2.5 million years ago (Ma)).
