• Can Offshore Meteoric Groundwater Generate Mechanical Instabilities in Passive Continental Margins? 

      Micallef, AaronORCIDiD; Person, MarkORCIDiD; Gupta, ShubhangiORCIDiD; Saadatkhah, NaderORCIDiD; Camille, AdrienORCIDiD; Gratacós, Òscar (Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2023-02-26)
      Offshore meteoric groundwater (OMG) has long been hypothesized to be a driver of seafloor geomorphic processes in continental margins worldwide. Testing this hypothesis has been challenging because of our limited understanding ...

      First reported in the 1960s, offshore freshened groundwater (OFG) has now been documented in most continental margins around the world. In this review we compile a database documenting OFG occurrences and analyze it to ...
    • The Role of Fluid Seepage in the Erosion of Mesozoic Carbonate Escarpments 

      Micallef, AaronORCIDiD; Paull, Charles K.; Saadatkhah, NaderORCIDiD; Bialik, Or (Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2021-11-12)
      Mesozoic submarine carbonate escarpments are erosional features that host box canyons, the formation of which had been attributed to seepage erosion in view of their similarity to subaerial box canyons. The latter had been ...
