Collaborative Research: Mass Flow Deposits in Seismic Profiles from the US Continental Rise: Mapping the Third Dimension

PIs将在美国大陆隆起的布莱克岭和新英格兰海山之间的1.0秒沉积物记录中绘制质量流沉积物。现有的单道和多道地震剖面将用于绘制质量流的垂直延伸。3.5千赫的记录也会被检查。埋藏的峡谷也将被绘制出来。随着对质量流沉积的地震表现认识的提高，PIs打算将其下坡向隆起搬运的体积测量延长到新近纪。

9505568 Mountain The PIs will map mass flow deposits in the upper 1.0 sec record of sediments on the US continental rise between Blake Ridge and New England seamounts. Single and multi-channel seismic profiles in existence will be used to map vertical extend of mass flows. 3.5 kHz records will also be examined. Buried canyons will also be mapped. Armed with improved awareness of the seismic expression of mass-flow deposits, the PIs intend to extend their volumetric measures of down-slope transport to the rise back to the Neogene time.
