The laboratory work to the dynamics of turbidity currents,
outlined in this volume, is the first experimental
investigation of the nature of downslape gravity-driven
currents of suspended sediments which are reflected/
deflected against obstacles such as seamounts oceanfloor
slopes. Scientists and researchers working on the
interpretation and understanding of features occurring in
sequence stratigraphic sections will find useful clues.
