Canyons and other sediment conduits are important components of the deep-waterenvironment and are the main pathways for sediment transport from the shelf tothe basin floor. Using 3-D and 2-D seismic reflection data, seismic facies and sta-tistical morphometric analyses, this study showed the archite...
