Cyclic steps are a type of upper flow-regime bedform consisting of trains of upstream-and
upslope-migrating bed undulations. The overriding flow is characterised by a series of …

Observations from the modern seafloor that suggest turbidity currents tend to erode as they
lose channel-levee confinement, rather than decelerating and depositing their sediment …

Carbonate environments inhabit the realm of the surface, intermediate and deep currents of
the ocean circulation where they produce and continuously deliver material which is …

Turbidity currents distribute sediment across the seafloor, forming important archives of
tectonic and climatic change on the Earth's surface. Turbidity current deposition is affected …

This study examines how multiscale oceanographic processes interact with the seafloor to
influence the development of contourite features in northern part of the South China Sea …

Changes in neritic carbonate production and sediment transport off platforms are related to
climate variations, sea‐level fluctuations and tectonic processes. Canyon systems marking …

Suspension is the key mechanism by which fine‐grained sediment (≤ 125 μm) is winnowed
and transported across shallow‐water carbonate platforms into adjacent deep waters …

Submarine fans are ubiquitous in modern deep-water environments. Such systems reported
in the literature are largely fed by shelf-indented canyons receiving ample fluvial or …

Slopes adjacent to the Bahamian carbonate platform revealed a large variety of depositional
processes. In this study, we present a synthesis summarizing 109,000 km2 of bathymetric …

The transition between the slope and basin floor is typically marked by a slope break, in
some cases causing channels to terminate and turbidity currents to undergo a loss of …
