| 11. | Although graded bedding can form in many different environments, it is a characteristic of turbidity currents.
|
| 12. | Unlike canyons on land, submarine canyons are thought to be formed by turbidity currents and underwater landslides.
|
| 13. | Examples include avalanches, haboobs, seafloor turbidity currents, lahars, pyroclastic flows, and lava flows.
|
| 14. | Some examples of soil liquefaction include quicksand, quick clay, turbidity currents, and earthquake induced liquefaction.
|
| 15. | When turbidity currents interact with other currents, such as contour currents, they can change their direction.
|
| 16. | Much of the modelling is used to reproduce the physical processes which govern turbidity current behaviour and deposits.
|
| 17. | The landslide that caused the tsunami generated turbidity currents that damaged several underwater cables in the Suva Canyon.
|
| 18. | These type of breccia usually are of marine origin and are formed by near-bottom turbidity currents.
|
| 19. | As a consequence, a slightly different set of sedimentary structures develops in turbidites deposited by high-density turbidity currents.
|
| 20. | It is unusual to see all of a complete Bouma cycle, as successive turbidity currents may erode the unconsolidated upper sequences.
