Published in 2019 at "Marine Biodiversity"

DOI: 10.1007/s12526-019-00961-z

Abstract: The current nematode classification comprises three primarily marine basal Chromadorean orders: the Microlaimida Leduc et al., 2018; Desmodorida De Coninck, 1965; and Chromadorida Chitwood, 1933. The phylogenetic placement of several taxa within these orders, however,… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Acta Oceanologica Sinica"

DOI: 10.1007/s13131-019-1530-3

Abstract: The continental slope in the northern South China Sea (SCS) is rich in mesoscale eddies which play an important role in transport and retention of nutrients and biota. In this study, we investigate the statistical… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Marine Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2017.10.008

Abstract: New marine-geophysical data were analyzed to investigate the sedimentary processes operating on the continental slope north of Nordaustlandet, Svalbard. Kvitoya Trough terminates in a trough-mouth fan (TMF) on the slope, whereas Albertini Trough incises the… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Marine and Petroleum Geology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2021.105279

Abstract: Abstract In a submarine canyon-incised continental slope, the observed bottom simulation reflection (BSR) frequently appears not to match with the predicted base of the gas hydrate stability zone (BGHSZ). However, the mechanism behind this discrepancy… read more here.
