CCGS Hudson expedition 2010-023, northeast Newfoundland Shelf and Slope, June 18-July 3, 2010 / D.C. Campbell, F. Saint-Ange.: M183-2/6930E-PDF
CCGS Hudson expedition 2010-023 to the Northeast Newfoundland Shelf and Slope region had the following primary objectives: 1) Investigate the largest submarine slide complex ever observed on the continental shelves of Atlantic Canada (Shaw et al. 2011). The slide complex is located on the north flank of the Notre Dame glacial trough, covering an area of 2400 km2 and represents a displaced volume of 300 km3 of sediment. 2) Improve understanding of the Neogene geological history, surficial geology, seafloor properties and processes of the continental slope between Orphan Spur and Hamilton Spur, the most extensive unsampled deepwater area off Canada’s east coast. The 500 km long segment of the slope has never been sampled by piston coring, and only one high resolution seismic reflection profile was collected in the area since 1984. ...
