Seabed Seismographs Reveal Duration and Structure of Longest Runout Sediment Flows on Earth

Seabed Seismographs Reveal Duration and Structure of Longest Runout Sediment Flows on Earth

Abstract Turbidity currents carve the deepest canyons on Earth, deposit its largest sediment accumulations, and break seabed telecommunication cables. Powerful canyon‐flushing turbidity currents break sensors placed in their path, making them notoriously challenging to measure, and thus poorly under...
