It is between 15 and 20 miles (20 to 30 km) wide and is some 1,000 feet (300 metres) deep in the vicinity of Bergen, reaching a maximum depth of about 2,300 feet (700 metres) in the Skagerrak. There also are some deep trenches in the western part of the North Sea, including ...

Lagrangian particle tracking experiments are conducted to investigate the pathways of deep water in the North Pacific Ocean. The flow field is taken from a state-of-the-art deep circulation simulation. An unprecedented number of particles are tracked to

If palaeogeographical maps are produced more formally, are digitally generated from source data and carry information that allows to track back to evidence and interpretive decisions, the map series become even more powerful. It makes the map series direct summaries of geological, geomorphological and...
