Acknowledgements We acknowledge the support of the PRACSS Joint Industry Project at University of Aberdeen, funded by BG Group, BP, DONG, RWE Dea, Petrochina, Statoil and Tullow Oil. We also acknowledge the entire crew of the Urania Research vessel which was used to acquire the CHIRP lines, bathymetric data and gravity cores from the Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy. Our colleagues Michal Janocko and Mike Mayall are thanked for the discussions and comments. Our colleagues Pan Li, Amanda Santa Catharina, Guilherme Bozetti and Matheus Silveira Sobiesiak are thanked for their assistance during field work where some of the ideas in this paper were synthesized. Finally we thank one anonymous reviewer and Brian Romans for their invaluable feedback which made some of the ideas introduced in this review much more succinct.
