Shelf-slope exchanges associated with a steep submarine canyon off Calvi (Corsica, NW Mediterranean Sea): A modeling approach

A three-dimensional, unsteady, nonlinear, high-resolution model is used to investigate the impact of the Calvi Canyon (NW Corsica) steep topography on the shelf-slope exchanges as well as on the circulation in the Calvi Bay in homogeneous winter and early spring conditions. A double ? coordinate sys...
