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.
