Impact of open-ocean convection on particle fluxes and sediment dynamics in the deep margin of the Gulf of Lions
The deep outer margin of the Gulf of Lions and the adjacent basin, in the western Mediterranean Sea, are regularly impacted by open-ocean convection, a major hydrodynamic event responsible for the ventilation of the deep water in the western Mediterranean Basin. However, the impact of open-ocean con...
