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.

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.

DOI: 10.1016/j.pocean.2018.10.002
Abstract: Abstract Submarine canyons are large geomorphological features that incise continental margins and act as highly dynamic conduits of sediments from shallow to the deep-sea regions. They are often regarded as biodiversity and biomass hotspots, but… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2021gl092995
Abstract: Closely spaced CTD stations showed elevated oxygen within Monterey Submarine Canyon. Anomalously high (2–5 μmol kg−1) dissolved oxygen was found between 600–1,100 m in the O2 minimum, co‐located with a turbulence hotspot caused by convergence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/bre.12313
Abstract: Use of deep‐water sediments in submarine fans to reconstruct changing erosion onshore is based on the premise of relatively simple transport between source and sink. However, debate continues regarding the degree of sediment buffering and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3989/scimar.04972.17b
Abstract: Decapod crustacean fisheries play a crucial role on the northwestern Mediterranean coast due to their high commercial value. Although knowledge of larval ecology and recruitment dynamics of these species is essential to establish a sustainable… read more here.
