Highlights

  • U.S Geological Survey, Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center, Santa Cruz, CA, United States Keywords: continental shelf, sedimentation, Monterey Bay, comment, sediment transport

  • Carlin et al (2019) published interpretations of several sediment cores obtained from the mid-to-outer continental shelf of Monterey Bay, California
