Natural levees developing at the western side of the submarine canyons on the continental rise around the Antarctic continent are for the first time described quantitatively. It is found that they apparently involve in large benthic flow.The observations presented here suggest that the benthic flow may be caused by a combination of bottom-trapped Rossby waves, the background mean current which most probably consists of Antarctic Bottom Water, and high-frequency tidal flow.
