The Depositional Record, 2022 Emplacement of submarine landslides, or mass‐transport deposits, can radically reshape the physiography of continental margins, and strongly influence subsequent sedimentary processes and dispersal patterns.

Applied Sciences, 2021 Deepwater lobes constitute a significant volume of submarine fans and are primarily believed to exhibit a simple sheet geometry. However, recent studies interpret the geometries of these deep-marine lobes as distinct with respect to the complexity of the

Bottom Current Modification of Turbidite Lobe Complexes
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Submarine lobes form at the distal end of sediment gravity flow systems and are globally important sinks for sediment, anthropogenic pollutants and organic carbon, as well as forming hydrocarbon and CO2 reservoirs.

Stratigraphy of the Hawai'i Scientific Drilling Project core (HSDP2): Anatomy of a Hawaiian shield volcano [PDF]
, 2007 The Hawai'i Scientific Drilling Project (HSDP2) successfully drilled ∼3.1 km into the island of Hawai'i. Drilling started on Mauna Loa volcano, drilling 247 m of subaerial lavas before encountering 832 m of subaerial Mauna Kea lavas, followed by 2019 m ...

Mangarara Formation: exhumed remnants of a middle Miocene, temperate carbonate, submarine channel-fan system on the eastern margin of Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2009 The middle Miocene Mangarara Formation is a thin (1–60 m), laterally discontinuous unit of moderately to highly calcareous (40–90%) facies of sandy to pure limestone, bioclastic sandstone, and conglomerate that crops out in a few valleys in North ...

Georesursy, 2020 The results of sedimentological core analysis of the Achimov Formation (Upper Valanginian, Lower Cretaceous) confirm that it was formed by higher efficiency systems of submarine fans in (relatively) deep marine basin.

Turbidites, Topography and Tectonics: Evolution of submarine channel-lobe systems in the salt-influenced Kwanza Basin, offshore Angola [PDF]
Basin Research, 2020 Abstract Understanding the evolution of submarine channel‐lobe systems on salt‐influenced slopes is challenging as these systems react to subtle, syn‐depositional changes in sea‐floor topography. The impact of large blocking structures on individual deep‐water systems is well documented, but our understanding of the spatial and ...

Submarine channel and lobe hidden inside mass-transport deposits in the northern Gulf of Mexico
Results in Geophysical Sciences, 2021 Abstract Despite numerous subsurface studies of mass-transport deposits (MTDs) using seismic data, internal characters of MTDs at the seismic scale are still not well understood, largely because of the limitation of seismic resolution. This study investigates Miocene-Pliocene MTDs in an understudied, hydrocarbon-rich region of the northern Gulf of ...

Large-scale submarine landslide drives long-lasting regime shift in slope sediment deposition
Geology, 2023 Submarine landslides and associated mass-transport deposits (MTDs) modify the physiography of continental margins and influence the evolution of submarine sediment routing systems.
