Journal ArticleDOI

New grid of Arctic bathymetry aids scientists and mapmakers

TL;DR: For over two decades, Sheet 5.17 of the Fifth Edition of the General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO) [Canadian Hydrographic Service, 1979] has been considered the authoritative portrayal of the sea floor north of 64 N as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simulation of Foreland Basin Stratigraphy using a diffusion model of mountain belt uplift and erosion: An example from the central Alps, Switzerland

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a simple model of three interacting processes: thrust deformation, sedimentary and erosional processes which redistribute that load, and the flexural response of the lithosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

A model for the headward erosion of submarine canyons induced by downslope-eroding sediment flows

TL;DR: In this article, a simple, physically-based computer model of continental slope evolution is used to investigate the sequence of submarine canyon formation, which simulates submarine canyons as evolving under the influence of sedimentation, slope failure, sediment flow erosion, and topography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ice shelves in the Pleistocene Arctic Ocean inferred from glaciogenic deep-sea bedforms

TL;DR: Backscatter images and sub-bottom profiler records obtained during the submarine SCICEX expedition in 1999 show multiple bedforms indicative of glacial scouring and moulding of sea floor, combined with large-scale erosion of submarine ridge crests, demonstrating that immense, Antarctic-type ice shelves existed in the Arctic Ocean during Pleistocene glaciations.
