There are four shelf-incising submarine canyons off SW Taiwan. They are distributed along the active continental margin, which is periodically flushed by gravity flows. Shelf-incising canyons, such as Kaoping Canyon, may not only be affected by oceanogra...

Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV)-based multibeam bathymetry, sub-bottom profiles, and side-scan sonar images were collected in 2009 and 2010 to map the geomorphic features along the axial zone of a canyon (referred to as C4) within the canyon system d...

This paper explores the dynamical origin and physical characteristics of flow disturbances induced by ocean currents in interaction with shelf-incised submarine canyons. To this end, a process-oriented hydrodynamic model is applied in a series of case st...

The submarine canyons are an important clue to study the evolution process of seafloor geomorphology and they generally indicate the significant linear grooves on the seafloor related to seafloor geodynamic erosion during the evolution of geomorphology. ...

During the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) (~20,000 years ago), the sea level was lower than that during the present day by 120 m and the heads of most submarine canyons were close or connected to the coastline or shore, with enhanced terrestrial sediment inp...

We processed the raw multi-beam bathymetry data acquired in the central and northeastern part of the South China Sea by eliminating noise and abnormal water depth values caused by environmental factors, and a high resolution bathymetric map with a 20-m g...

Mass wasting events are the main processes of sedimentary dynamics that affect the marine environment and which, due to their spatial and temporal variability, are difficult to study and evaluate. Affecting the marine floor, between the coastline and the...

Submarine canyons are geomorphologic lineaments engraving the slope/outer shelf of continental margins. These features are often associated with significant geologic hazard when they develop close to densely populated coastal zones. The seafloor of Naple...

The analysis of high resolution morpho?bathymetric data on the Calabro Tyrrhenian continental margin (Southern Italy) enabled us to identify several morphological features originated by mass?wasting processes, including shallow gullies, shelf?indenting c...

Chaco Canyon, NM, USA, was the center of an Ancestral Puebloan polity from approximately 850?1140 CE, and home to a dozen palatial structures known as ?great houses? and scores of ritual structures called ?great kivas?. It is hypothesized that the 2.5 km...

Air pollution is probably the single largest environment risk to health and urban streets are the localized, relevant hotspots. Numerous studies reviewed the state-of-the-art models, proposed best-practice guidelines and explored, using various software,...

While large eddy simulation has several advantages in microscale air pollutant dispersion modelling, the parametric investigation of geometries is not yet feasible because of its relatively high computational cost. By assuming an analogy between heat and...

Dense urban areas restrict air movement, causing airflow in urban street canyons to be much lower than the flow above buildings. Boosting near-ground wind speed can enhance thermal comfort in warm climates by increasing skin convective heat transfer. We ...
