Made of mud and sand, these massive underwater sediment waves lie around 3,280 feet below the seabed, researchers reported in a new study.

Glandon and her team have a solution: Install artificial reefs in the lake’s shallows to temper the intensity of waves and preserve the shoreline directly inland. Through two federally funded ...

In 2021, a team led by Dr Gary Kinsland of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette found evidence that the impact and resulting tsunami left "megaripples" of sediment 16 meters (53 feet) high and ...

In addition to amplification, seismic waves can also reverberate within a sediment-filled basin. Think back to that shaking bowl of jelly and how the flopping top bounces off the sides of the bowl.

Mars may have once hosted an ocean with waves that lapped against sandy beaches 3.6 billion years ago, according to new research. China’s Zhurong rover and its ground-penetrating radar detected ...

On Earth, ocean tides and winds carry sediment toward the shoreline, where the sediment settles out to form a beach deposit with a characteristic dipping angle. New observations indicate that early in ...
