Quantifying Morphological Processes
Quantifying Morphological Processes lays the foundation for a better assessment of landslide hazard and sediment transport for resource utilization.
Uri ten Brink's Quantifying Morphological Processes research includes:
- Submarine Slope Failures
- Tsunamis
- Sediment Compaction
- Atlantic Margin Morphology, Canyon Formation, and Landslide Initiation
- Caribbean Margin Landslides and Bathymetry
- Glaciated Continental Shelves of the Antarctic Margin

Mysterious tsunami in the Caribbean Sea following the 2010 Haiti earthquake possibly generated by dynamically triggered early aftershocks
Dynamically triggered offshore aftershocks, caused by passing seismic waves from main shocks located on land, are currently not considered in tsunami warnings. The M7.0 2010 Haiti earthquake epicenter was located on land 27 km north of the Caribbean Sea and its focal mechanism was oblique strike-slip. Nevertheless, a tsunami recorded on a Caribbean Deep-Ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunami (D
Semi-automated bathymetric spectral decomposition delineates the impact of mass wasting on the morphological evolution of the continental slope, offshore Israel
Offshore landslide hazard curves from mapped landslide size distributions
Geologic controls on submarine slope failure along the central U.S. Atlantic margin: Insights from the Currituck Slide Complex
Bathymetric terrain model of the Atlantic margin for marine geological investigations
Event sedimentation in low-latitude deep-water carbonate basins, Anegada passage, northeast Caribbean
The Virgin Islands and Whiting basins in the Northeast Caribbean are deep, structurally controlled depocentres partially bound by shallow-water carbonate platforms. Closed basins such as these are thought to document earthquake and hurricane events through the accumulation of event layers such as debris flow and turbidity current deposits and the internal deformation of deposited material. Event l
Assessment of tsunami hazard to the U.S. Atlantic margin
A framework for the probabilistic analysis of meteotsunamis
Bathymetric Terrain Model of the Puerto Rico Trench and the Northeastern Caribbean Region for Marine Geological Investigations
Multibeam bathymetry data collected in the Puerto Rico Trench and Northeast Caribbean region are compiled into a seamless bathymetric terrain model for broad-scale geological investigations of the trench system. These data, collected during eight separate surveys between 2002 and 2013, covering almost 180,000 square kilometers are published here in large format map sheet and digital spatial data.
