Published in 2018 at "Hydrobiologia"

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-018-3563-6

Abstract: Population genetics has gained popularity as a method to discover glacial refugia in terrestrial species, but has only recently been applied to the marine realm. The last glacial maxima occurred 20,000 years ago, decreasing sea levels… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Acta Oceanologica Sinica"

DOI: 10.1007/s13131-019-1501-8

Abstract: The upper part of the continental slope in the northern South China Sea is prone to submarine landslide disasters, especially in submarine canyons. This work studies borehole sediments, discusses geotechnical properties of sediments, and evaluates… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jweia.2018.01.034

Abstract: Abstract In this study, a large-eddy simulation (LES) was conducted to investigate the validity of the modeling of Reynolds stress in standard k-e model (k-e model) for urban canyon flow. It was confirmed that the… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Marine Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2018.06.014

Abstract: Abstract The Monterey submarine canyon, incised across the continental shelf in Monterey Bay, California, provides a record of the link between onshore tectonism, fluvial transport, and deep-marine deposition. High-resolution seismic-reflection imaging in Monterey Bay reveals… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Marine Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2018.09.016

Abstract: 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 underestimated. This study uses 3D seismic and piston-core data to investigate… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Marine Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2020.106310

Abstract: Abstract The present work simulated a hypothetical 4D delta-canyon-fan depositional system using stratigraphic forward modelling (SFM) to: 1) investigate the differences and linkages of the sea-level control on the evolution of each sub-environment; 2) explain… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Progress in Oceanography"

DOI: 10.1016/j.pocean.2017.12.010

Abstract: Abstract Fishing vessels are attracted to the dendritic Whittard Canyon system due to the abundance and diversity of species found there. Both midwater and bottom trawling are commonplace, including on deep canyon channel floors. Bottom… read more here.
