Large-scale sediment waves and scours on the modern seafloor and their implications for the prevalence of supercritical flows
WO Symons, EJ Sumner, PJ Talling, MJB Cartigny… - Marine Geology, 2016 - Elsevier
Abstract Large-scale (20 m to 7 km wavelength) bedforms are common on the seafloor, yet
there is a lack of consensus on how they form and thus what to call them. We conducted …

Are subduction zones invading the Atlantic? Evidence from the southwest Iberia margin
Subduction initiation at passive margins plays a central role in the plate tectonics theory.
However, the process by which a passive margin becomes active is not well understood. In …
