Submarine turbidity currents form the largest sediment accumulations on Earth, raising the
question of their role in global carbon cycles. It was previously inferred that terrestrial …

Marine sediments play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle by acting as the ultimate sink
of both terrestrial and marine organic carbon. To understand the spatiotemporal variability in …

Purpose Evaluating sediment fingerprinting source apportionments with artificial mixtures is
crucial for supporting decision-making and advancing modeling approaches. However …

Kaikōura Canyon, offshore Aotearoa/New Zealand, is a hotspot for deep-sea benthic biology
with globally high faunal abundance. The M w 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake in 2016 triggered a …

Sediment density flows are large scale disturbances that can have dramatic impacts on
seafloor animal communities in the deep sea. Seafloor imagery collected in Kaikōura …

Sediment density flows can transport massive amounts of sediment across large distances
and can have dramatic, long-lasting impacts on deep-sea benthic communities. A canyon …

Turbidity flows can transport massive amounts of sediment across large distances with
dramatic, long-lasting impacts on deep-sea benthic communities. The 2016 M w 7.8 …

Submarine canyons are important deep-sea environments and conduits for transferring and
accumulating sediment and organic matter and pollutants. Recent advances in observing …

Millions of tons of material are flushed through submarine canyons during infrequent high-
magnitude events, transporting coastal sediment to the deep ocean. However, observations …

Submarine canyons can facilitate the transfer of land‐derived organic matter to the deep
sea. Here, we investigated links between variability in organic matter availability from land …
