    • The west basin canyon is a large cayon in the middle east of the Zhongjiannan basin in South China Sea. It appears to be NW direction, the depth of water is 2 850-4 300 m, and the length of it is about 188 km, the width is 1.8-14.5 km. It begins within the Zhongjiannan basin, and extends to the southwest sub-basin. The study of it provides a basis for the study of turbidite fan in the southwest sub-basin, and also provides scientific basis for deep understanding of the transportation model of turbidy currents. Based on the latest data of high resolution multi-beam depth sounding, single channel and multichannel seismic, this paper studies the morphological characteristics and structure and evolution of the west basin canyon. The results show the "segmentation" characteristics of the west basin canyon, including four stages:U type upper segment, V type middle upper segment, V bellow U type middle lower segment and U type lower segment, from the northwest to the southeast. The upper segment is mainly because of sedimentation processes, the infill of the multiphase incised valley reaches a thickness of 1 200 m; the middle-upper segment is mainly controlled by erosion-deposition, which leads to the formation of the turbidite sandstone body; the middle-lower segment is mainly controlled by erosion, which leads to the formation of the embankment and the mass flow deposit; the mass-flow and slip block deposited within the lower segment. The formation of the west basin canyon is influenced by palaeogeomorphology, erosion-deposition, sea-level change, tectonic movement, and magmatic activity, and the main controlling parameters are erosion-deposition, fault activity and sea-level change. The sedimentary evolution of the west basin canyon can be divided into 3 stages:the Middle Miocene canyon breeds stage, the Late Miocene sea canyon erosion and filling stage, the Pliocene-Quaternary canyon "rejuvenation" stage.
