In late January 2005intense dense shelf water cascading was observed in the Gulf of Lions’ submarine canyons, and almost simultaneously a dense deep watermass, warmer and saltier than usual, reached the deep mooring site. After 30 days, the colder, fresher and even denser waters originatedon the shelf arrived at the mooring, and their signature could be detected for 35 days. By late spring 2005 the mixture of both dense watermasses reached new stable thermohaline properties with higher values than those that characterized the deep layer before 2005
