An estimated 8.3 billion tons of non-biodegradable plastic has been produced over the last
65 years. Much of this is not recycled and is disposed into the natural environment, has a …

Process-product studies have been central to the development of process sedimentology
over the past few decades, with the ability to first measure flows, and then examine the …

Submarine sediment density flows are one of the most important processes for moving
sediment across our planet, yet they are extremely difficult to monitor directly. The speed of …

Submarine gravity flows are a key process for transporting large volumes of sediment from
the continents to the deep sea. The location, volume, and character of the sediment …

The processes within deep-sea sediment-routing systems are difficult to directly monitor.
Therefore, we rely on other means to decipher the sequence and relative magnitude of the …

Two scales of levee confinement are commonly recognised from submarine channel-levee
systems on the seafloor and in the subsurface. Large-scale external levees bound the entire …

Submarine channel-related thin-bedded turbidites are deposited in environments such as
external levees, internal levees, depositional terraces and at times of channel abandonment …

Most submarine canyons are documented as erosive features that cut deeply into the shelf
margin, and are considered as important conduits for the transfer of sediment to the lower …

Submarine channel-lobe transition zones separate well-defined channels from well-defined
lobes and form morphologically complicated areas, commonly located at breaks in slope …

Terraces on the modern seafloor are defined as topographically flat areas above the active
submarine channel thalweg but within the confines of the channel-belt. They have been …
