We evaluate the characteristics of the sediment undulations in order to determine the most likely process for the origin of these structures. these characteristics indicate that the sediment undulations on the Llobregat River prodelta do not result from sediment deformation. their identification as sediment waves implies that such features do not pose a major hazard for further offshore development.}, issn = {20358008}, url = {http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-84863328164\&partnerID=tZOtx3y1}, author = {Urgeles, Roger and De Mol, Ben and Puig, Pere and De Batist, Marc and Hughes-Clarke, John E.} }
