Journal ArticleDOI
1300-m-high rising bubbles from mud volcanoes at 2080m in the Black Sea: Hydroacoustic characteristics and temporal variability
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the 38 kHz EK500 split-beam system to detect gas bubbles in the water column, which can be detected even in great water depths by echosounders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geological and morphological setting of 2778 methane seeps in the Dnepr paleo-delta, northwestern Black Sea
Lieven Naudts,Jens Greinert,Yuriy G Artemov,P. Staelens,Jeffrey Poort,Pieter Van Rensbergen,Marc De Batist +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed multibeam, seismic and hydro-acoustic water column investigations were carried out to study the relation between the spatial distribution of methane seeps, sea-floor morphology and sub-surface structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lacustrine turbidites as a tool for quantitative earthquake reconstruction: New evidence for a variable rupture mode in south central Chile
Jasper Moernaut,Jasper Moernaut,Maarten Van Daele,Katrien Heirman,Karen Fontijn,Michael Strasser,Mario Pino,Roberto Urrutia,Marc De Batist +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a multilake turbidite record was used to estimate the magnitude, rupture locations, and extent of past subduction earthquakes in south central Chile by comparing historical reports, a paleotsunami/subsidence record, and a marine megaturbidite record.
Journal ArticleDOI
Erosional offshore sand ridges and lowstand shorefaces; examples from tide- and wave-dominated environments of France
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used very high-resolution seismic profiles, along with some shallow cores, to reconstruct the architecture of offshore sand bodies from the Celtic Sea (tide-dominated) and the Gulf of Lions (wavedominated) shelves of France.
Lacustrine turbidites as a tool for quantitative earthquake reconstruction
Jasper Moernaut,Maarten Van Daele,Katrien Heirman,Willem,Michael Strasser,Mario Pino,Roberto Urrutia,Marc De Batist +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, sedimentary data retrieved in multiple cores from several of these lakes show that turbidite deposits in these lakes accurately reflect the historical record of large megathrust earthquakes (e.g. the M w 9.5 Valdivia earthquake of 1960).
