Turbidity Currents: Dynamics, Deposits and Reversals

The laboratory work to the dynamics of turbidity currents,outlined in this volume, is the first experimentalinvestigation of the nature of downslape gravity-drivencurrents of suspended sediments which are reflected/deflected against obstacles such as seamounts oceanfloorslopes. Scientists and researchers working on theinterpretation and understanding of features occurring insequence stratigraphic sections will find useful clues.
