Variations in solar insolation caused by changes in the Earth?s orbit?specifically its eccentricity, obliquity, and precession?can leave discernible marks on the geologic record. Astrochronology leverages these markers to establish a direct connection be...

Turbidity currents are important carriers for transporting terrestrial sediment into the deep sea, facilitating the transfer of matter and energy between land and the deep sea. Previous studies have suggested that turbidity currents can exhibit high velo...

Deep-sea mining vehicles (DSMVs) are highly prone to sinking and slippage when traveling on extremely soft seafloor sediments. In addition, DSMVs can be vulnerable to dangerous situations such as overturning due to the non-homogeneous characteristic of t...

The Qinghai?Tibet Plateau (QTP) hosts significant lacustrine sedimentary boron-rich deposits, with the Xiongba Basin being a prominent region housing two large sedimentary boron-rich deposits. These deposits are closely associated with extensive Neogene ...

The geomorphology of the deep-sea environment is complex, including seamounts based on hard rocks and seabeds based on rare soft sediments. Therefore, the frame of the benthic lander needs to be shock and subsidence resistant. In this paper, the static m...

Carbonate compensation depth (CCD) is an important factor in the global deep ocean and in global carbon cycling; however, its variabilities have not been well documented in previous studies. In this study, we investigate two deep-sea cores collected from...

Organic matter burial in the deep-sea fan sediments is an important component of the long-term carbon cycle. Although there is increasing recognition of the importance of organic matter in deep-sea sediments, a major focus has been on mudstones, commonly...

The Mid-Brunhes Event (MBE) was one of the most important global climate events since 800 ka. The deep-sea palaeoceanographic changes in the Western Pacific might have been more sensitive to the MBE and they have not been well documented yet. In this stu...

The geochemistry and mineralogy of sediments provide relevant information for the understanding of the origin and metallogenic mechanism of ferromanganese nodules and crusts. At present, there are still few studies on the sediment origin of the Clarion?C...
