| Abstract/Notes | The publication by the Geological Society of America of that momentous work by the late A. C. Veatch and P. A. Smith (1939) with its beautifully executed charts, following closely Douglas Johnson's stimulating contribution on the subject (1938), again focuses attention on those stupendous erosion-features—the “Submarine Canyons”. Through stressing the relatively brief space of time available for their evolution, this latest pronouncement only renders more of an enigma those gigantic furrows that would now seem to fringe so much of the continental margins. As Daly has remarked (1936, p. 402), they appear to be planetary and not merely regional. It is in the Atlantic, however, that they have been most thoroughly studied. |
