Bathymetric terrain model of the Atlantic margin for marine geological investigations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Bathymetric terrain models of seafloor morphology are an important component of marine geological investigations. Advances in acquisition and processing technologies of bathymetric data have facilitated the creation of high-resolution bathymetric ...

Submarine landslides around the Canary Islands [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2001
The morphology and structure of the submarine flanks of the Canary Islands were mapped using the GLORIA long‐range side‐scan sonar system, bathymetric multibeam systems, and sediment echosounders. Twelve young (<2 Ma) giant landslides have been identified on the submarine flanks of the Canary Islands up to now. Older landslide events are long buried

Education in a Changing Climate: A Systematic Review for Low and Middle‐Income Countries (LMICs)

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is a major global challenge that affects many aspects of human life and hinders progress on the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). One area that has not received enough attention is its impact on children's education in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), which are especially vulnerable to ...

Undersea landslides: extent and significance in the Pacific Ocean, an update [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2005
Submarine landslides are known to occur disproportionately in a limited number of environments including fjords, deltas, canyons, volcanic islands and the open continental slope.

Glass in the submarine section of the HSDP2 drill core, Hilo, Hawaii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project recovered ~3 km of basalt by coring into the flank of Mauna Kea volcano at Hilo, Hawaii. Rocks recovered from deeper than ~1 km were deposited below sea level and contain considerable fresh glass. We report electron

Large submarine landslides offshore Mt. Etna [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2006
High resolution seismic data, we collected in the Ionian sea, reveal large submarine landslide deposits offshore from Mt. Etna (Italy), spatially consistent with the eastern flank collapse of this volcano. A large debris‐avalanche deposit, we relate to the Valle del Bove scar, displays long offshore run‐outs (till 20 km) and a volume of a few tens of ...

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Landslides in the Upper Submarine Slopes of Volcanic Islands: The Central Azores

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Small landslides in the upper submarine slopes of volcanic islands present potential hazards locally because of their high frequency. We examine evidence for landsliding in high‐resolution bathymetric data from Faial, Pico, São Jorge, and Terceira ...

Extreme Weather Events and Agricultural Total Factor Productivity Growth

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The productivity of the agricultural sector is crucial for food security in a changing climate. This study estimates the impacts of extreme weather events on agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) growth, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the effects of climate change on agriculture.

Sediment dynamics and geohazards offshore Uruguay and northern Argentina: first results from the multi-disciplinary Meteor-cruise M78-3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
About 90% of the sediments generated by weathering and erosion on land get finally deposited at the ocean margins. The sediment distribution processes and landscape evolution on land are relatively well understood, but comparably little is known about ...
