Deformations formed in unconsolidated sediments are known as soft-sediment deformation
structures. Their nature, the time of their genesis, and the state in which the sediments …

The worlds> 1500 mud volcanoes are normally in a dormant stage due to the short duration
of eruptions. Their dormant stage activity is often characterized by vigorous seepage of …

Mud volcanoes can be large and long lived geological structures that morphologically
resemble magmatic volcanoes. Because of their capricious behaviour and their spectacular …

In paper based on the results of previous studies and latest investigations of mud volcanoes
in the South Caspian basin the depth occurrence of fluid, mud and rocks are calculated and …

A mud eruption, nicknamed Lusi, began near Sidoarjo, East Java, in May 2006. It has
discharged∼ 10 4–10 5 m 3/day of mud ever since. In order to understand the nature of the …

Abstract Yakutat Bay, Southeast Alaska, is characterized by significant spatial variations in
sediment type and dynamics. The northwestern side is supplied by sediments from the …

Geotechnical in-situ characterization of the strength of the shallowest sub-seafloor sediment
is an important factor in offshore engineering (eg, scouring at wind energy plants), coastal …

In contrast to volcanologists, sedimentologists are not only interested in “classical”
volcanoes, but also in a second type, viz. sedimentary volcanoes. This type of volcano is …

In situ geotechnical testing of surficial sediment layers in areas of active sediment dynamics
can provide essential information about physical and geotechnical variations of sediment …

A northern ocean of Mars is still debated and, if it existed, it may have accompanied valley
networks and/or outflow channels, which may have led to the emplacement of a large …
