Summary Francis P. Shepard left a rich scientific legacy including more than 230 published papers and books primarily addressed to the study of submarine canyons and turbidity currents, continental shelves and associated sediments, coastal processes and sediments and marine physiography and tectonics. His broad range of scientific interests and his remarkable ability to break new ground in each of these disciplines have served as a model for at least four generations of students. This new work from these Shepard students addresses problems in marine geology from the global scale to the local outcrop scale.
