Popis: A Seabeam survey of the Petit Rhone canyon and deep-sea fan, in the northwestern Meditteranean Sea, shows the existence of a furrow, which resembles those of some terrestrial rivers. The hydrodynamic regime of this furrow is discussed, taking into account some morphological features, structural characteristics and calculated volume of sediments expected to have been transported down-slope.
