Askoa Ibisate, a geographer specializing in fluvial geomorphology, has analyzed how the disappearance of the Olloki dam affects sediment transport. Ibisate concluded that the volume of pebbles ...

Using seismic stations usually used for monitoring earthquakes, an international team of geoscientists tracked Earth’s ...

Turbidity currents are an important natural process that often goes unnoticed: these powerful currents beneath the ocean surface carve deep submarine canyons, create huge sediment deposits and can ...

The shape of rivers and streams changes through time as erosion, deposition, and transport of sediment occurs. Rivers and streams maintain a dynamic equilibrium between discharge, slope ...

"However, unlike rivers, they are among the least understood processes of sediment transport." To address this knowledge gap, the team deployed seismometers in October 2019 in the Congo Canyon and ...

The deep-sea, covering more than 60% of the Earth's surface, is a realm of mystery. It hosts a diverse range of geological features, which are all subject ...

What comes to your mind when you imagine a river? A stream of water flowing through landscapes? While that's partly true, rivers are so much more than just wate ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) The demolition of the Olloki dam has significantly increased sediment transport, with pebbles traveling longer distances. Over seven years, 1,800 stones were ...

Kiel. An international team of researchers led by GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel and Durham University has successfully captured the internal structure of the longest-runout sediment ...

In terms of the amount of sediment mobilised ... “The control point enabled us to discover that the changes in the transport of sediments caused by the demolition of the dam were actually ...
