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 …

The discovery of the super-giant Coral and Mamba gas fields in the offshore of Northern
Mozambique provides a unique insight into the architecture of a new deep-water play-type …

The interaction of deep-marine bottom currents with episodic, unsteady sediment gravity
flows affects global sediment transport, forms climate archives, and controls the evolution of …

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

Ocean currents control seafloor morphology and the transport of sediments, organic carbon,
nutrients, and pollutants in deep-water environments. A better connection between …

Evidences of sedimentation affected by oceanic circulation, such as nepheloid layers and
contourites are often observed along continental slopes. However, the oceanographic …

Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are becoming more frequent and intense around the world
leading to long-term impacts on ecosystems and subsequent socioeconomic consequences …

The interaction of sedimentary systems with oceanographic processes in deep‐water
environments is not well understood yet, despite its importance for palaeoenvironmental …

Sediment deposits formed mainly under the influence of bottom currents (contourites) are
widely used as high-resolution archives for reconstructing past ocean conditions. However …

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