Canyons create terrain and substrate habitat heterogeneity and provide the main pathway for sediments, detrital organic matter, pollutants and marine debris from coastal regions to the deep sea (Puig et al., 2014). Canyons often concentrate organic matter enhancing overall ecosystem biomass and fisheries, acting as biodiversity hotspots and provisioning key ecosystem services (De Leo et al., 2010, Thurber et al., 2014, Fernandez-Arcaya et al., 2017). Despite their widespread occurrence and importance, only a small subset of submarine canyons have been comprehensively investigated with respect to the entire breadth of physical, geological and biological processes (see Matos et al., in press, this volume). In addition, a limited but increasing number of studies are reporting pervasive human impacts to key submarine canyon ecosystems, particularly resulting from worldwide fisheries targeting deep-water resources along continental margins (see Martín et al., 2014 for a review). Therefore, integrated and multidisciplinary studies investigating submarine canyon processes, productivity and biodiversity, become essential for informing and establishing proactive and coordinated resource management and conservation strategies.
