Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the Wilmington submarine canyon, a geological feature on the Atlantic seafloor, through photographs taken by an underwater camera. The in-depth analysis of over 1200 photographs provides a detailed look at the texture of the seafloor, patterns of modern currents and material movement, and the role of benthic organisms in modifying bottom sediments. The research conducted by the author suggests that the Wilmington canyon has played a vital role in transporting sediments from the continental shelf to the deep sea in the recent past, challenging the previous notion that submarine canyons in tectonically stable areas are relatively inactive. The findings presented in this book contribute significantly to our understanding of the processes shaping the seafloor and the role of submarine canyons in sediment transport. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334496912_0
