Morphodynamics and spatial distribution of regional slope failures in the Offshore Amazon Basin, Brazilian Equatorial Margin
Abstract:Slope instabilities occur in distinct geological contexts on the marginal basins worldwide and are known for constitute true risks to submarine infrastructure and even to coastal populations, thus representing potential submarine geohazards. In the Offshore Amazon basin, instabilities features and associated mass-transport deposits were already mapped in a series of previous works where (i) quaternary and near-surface remobilized deposits were identified on high-resolution data, occurring interbedded with chan… Show more
