Deep and long-lived rifted basins host valuable information about tectonic evolution and
environmental changes occurring in their surroundings throughout hundreds of millions of …

Contourite drifts are anomalously high sediment accumulations that form due to reworking
by bottom currents. Due to the lack of a comprehensive contourite database, the link …

Abstract This study synthesizes 15 years (2001–2016) of detailed multibeam hydrographic
mapping covering the entire 26,500 km 2 of the Israeli Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) …

Benthic microbes are key organisms in the oligotrophic Southeastern Mediterranean Sea
(SEMS), yet their abundance, activity, and diversity in this rapidly changing basin are not …

The characterization of salt tectonics and its gravity-driven deformation processes are the
key to a better understanding of the structural evolution of salt-bearing rifted margins. Unlike …

Following the termination of the Messinian salinity crisis~ 5.3 million years ago, massive
sedimentation in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea formed the huge Nile Delta. Alongside …

The stratigraphic architecture of coastal plains is determined by the interactions between
local (eg fluvial processes and topography), regional (eg climate) and global (eg sea level) …

A standard source-to-sink approach examines sediment transport along an imaginary axis
(regarded here as primary) extending between land, the continental margin and a nearby …

Understanding continental‐slope morphological evolution is essential for predicting basin
deposition. However, separating the imprints and chronology of different seafloor shaping …

This research examines the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on marine litter pollution
along the Israeli coast, which constitutes a terminal area in the Mediterranean Sea large …
