[HTML][HTML] Benthic storms, nepheloid layers, and linkage with upper ocean dynamics in the western North Atlantic
WD Gardner, BE Tucholke, MJ Richardson, PE Biscaye - Marine Geology, 2017 - Elsevier
Benthic storms are episodic periods of strong abyssal currents and intense, benthic
nepheloid (turbid) layer development. In order to interpret the driving forces that create and …
