Swath bathymetry and seismic reflection profiles collected by the Italian Antarctic Program (PNRA WEGA and MOGAM projects), combined with Australian (CSIRO) oceanographic measures (Williams et al., 2010) and benthic fauna sampling (Post et al., 2010), in the offshore of the George Vth Land, document evidence of bottom water cascading currents and turbidity currents inside continental slope canyons. The continental slope is incised by canyons heading to shelf edge sills and bounding sedimentary ridges of Miocene age. Dense shelf water forms in coastal polynya and is exported off the shelf break to form the Ad\ue9lie Land branch of the Antarctic Bottom Water (ALBW, Rintoul et al., 2008). This bottom water is detected by CTD and mooring measur...
