摘要: Abstract The topography in the Corner seamounts area western North Atlantic was studied to determine its relationship sedimentation pattern. areas of anomalously thick sediment accumulation that are found on north side related volcanic activity as well paleocurrent and wind patterns. An irregular surface has been formed by slump structures actively eroding bottom currents, latter evidenced high particulate iron concentrations water.
