Mountain building results in high erosion rates and the interaction of rocks with the
atmosphere, water and life. Carbon transfers that result from increased erosion could control …

Submarine turbidity currents form the largest sediment accumulations on Earth, raising the
question of their role in global carbon cycles. It was previously inferred that terrestrial …

Seafloor sediment flows, called turbidity currents, form the largest sediment accumulations,
deepest canyons and longest channels on Earth. It was once thought that turbidity currents …

Earth-surface processes operate across erosionally dominated landscapes and deliver
sediment to depositional systems that can be preserved over a range of timescales. The …

Riverine export of particulate organic carbon (POC) to the ocean affects the atmospheric
carbon inventory over a broad range of timescales,,,,. On geological timescales, the balance …

Here we show how major rivers can efficiently connect to the deep-sea, by analysing the
longest runout sediment flows (of any type) yet measured in action on Earth. These seafloor …

First-order relationships between organic matter content and mineral surface area have
been widely reported and are implicated in stabilization and long-term preservation of …

The discovery of turbidites represents perhaps the major genuine advance of sedimentology
during the twentieth century. Turbidites are the deposits of turbidity currents and were …

A regional synthesis of organic carbon (OC) burial was conducted using a comprehensive
data set to reveal some of the key drivers and human multi‐stressors controlling OC burial …

Source to sink sedimentary systems are important settings of carbon cycling, serving as sites
of carbon transfer between terrestrial and marine reservoirs, and as the primary locations for …
