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

Brief and intensive volcanic emissions from Ontong Java Nui heralded Oceanic Anoxic Event 1a
Communications Earth & EnvironmentThe volcanic episode that formed Ontong Java Nui (OJN) in the western Pacific ~ 120 million-year-ago is thought to have triggered Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE) 1a, yet the cause-effect relationship remains insufficiently understood. Here, we present a Pb-Os-

Water on Mars: Do submarine cyclic steps exist on the red planet?
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2018 Submarine cyclic steps have a significant impact on the evolution of the ocean floor on Earth. These upper-flow regime bedforms should be even more common in Martian reduced-gravity environments.
