The seabed of the St. Lawrence Estuary is characterized by many fluid releasing features. On multibeam bathymetric images these features correspond to crater-like depression (pockmarks) predominantly found on the northwestern shoulder of the ~300 m deep Laurentian Channel, as well as on the channel floor. Aligned pockmarks, which define segments up to 12 km long, are frequent in the Laurentian Channel, whereas they are preferentially associated with submarine landslides on the northwestern shoulder of the channel. On high-resolution seismic profiles, pockmarks found in the Laurentian Channel are characterized by seismic chimneys that may be traced down to the autochthonous Paleozoic rocks (St. Lawrence platform),...
