- •
Ubiquitous seamounts in the continental margin.
- •
Seafloor geomorphology and geological processes are controlled by volcanic processes and massive slope instabilities.
- •
Two new volcanic seamounts and four new submarine hills have been reported and their characteristics are described.
- •
Massive slope instabilities play the main role in the development of features and morpho-sedimentary units.
