Based on multi-beam bathymetric data and 2D high-resolution, multi-channel seismic prof＇des, combing ODPl148 drilling data, the morphology, internal sedimentary architecture, and evo-lution pattern of 17 deepwater canyons from the Middle Miocene to present are documented in the northern Baiyun （白云）...
