Abstract
GLORIA long-range sidescan sonar records and 3.5 kHz seismic profiles of the Bering Sea basin floor show remarkable patterns of acoustic backscatter. The most recently active depositional systems are those from the northern slopes of the Aleutian volcanic chain rather than from the deeply canyoned slopes bordering the Bering shelf. Tributary canyons/channels, with steep axial gradients and low sinuosity, feed extensive, presumably sandy, channel-mouth lobes.
