Underwater geology: Scientists have discovered that ocean currents create avalanches, rivers and other seafloor infrastructure changes

We know more about space than the behavior and structure of the ocean deep. Scientists recently discovered that deep ocean currents cause sediment avalanches and changes to rivers and the sea floor. The team of scientists responsible for this discovery is led by Maria Azpiroz-Zabala, Dr. Matthieu Cartigny, professors Peter Talling, Dan Parsons and Mike […]
