Interactions between along-slope bottom currents and down-slope turbidity flows can create
a myriad of features and deposits. Despite numerous efforts to differentiate contourites from …

Oceanic currents can profoundly reshape the seafloor and even modify the characteristics of
turbidite systems. Multiple erosional and depositional features directly formed by bottom …

Despite numerous efforts to properly differentiate between contourites and other deep‐water
deposits in cores and outcrops, reliable diagnostic criteria are still lacking. The co …

Canada ratified the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) in 2003.
With that ratification is an obligation to submit data and information to the UN pertaining to …

Contourites are common morphological features along continental margins where currents
encounter the seafloor. They can provide long-term archives of palaeoceanography, may be …

We present a combined study of the geomorphology, sedimentology, and physical
oceanography of the Mozambique Channel to evaluate the role of bottom currents in …

等深流与重力流在深水环境中较为常见, 两者在地质历史时期中可存在相互作用进而形成交互
作用沉积. 结合近20 年研究成果, 对深水等深流与重力流交互作用的沉积类型, 鉴别标志 …

The identification of several Cretaceous to Paleogene mixed turbidite-contourite systems
along the upper to middle continental slope of Nova Scotia provides a unique opportunity to …

This study describes previously unrecognized contourite depositional systems (CDSs) in the
Mozambique Channel which constrain palaeoceanographic models for this area. The …

Abstracts Contour currents are ubiquitous in global oceans, the role of which in shaping
submarine morphology and controlling deep-water sedimentary processes has long been …
