How are turbidity currents related to submarine canyons?
Created by a series of complex processes, submarine canyons continue to be carved by sporadic turbidity currents waterfalls of sand, gravel, and muddy sediments.
Explain how turbidity currents are related to submarine canyons?
Turbidity currents are fast-moving underwater sediment flows that can carve out submarine canyons by eroding and transporting sediment down the continental slope. The high sediment loads in turbidity currents create erosional forces that help shape and deepen submarine canyons over time. Submarine canyons act as conduits for turbidity currents to flow through and deposit sediment in the deep ocean.
Which current is associated with down slope movements of dense sediment rich water?
There are a number of processes that could fit this description including mud / debris flows and solifluction (both types of "mass wasting"). In pelagic / benthic (marine) settings turbidity currents would also fit this description. Please see the related links.
How are temperature and turbidity related?
when warm air rises cooler air moves in to replace it
What is the suffix for submarine?
The suffix for "submarine" is "-marine," which means related to the sea or marine environment.
Is turbidity and optical density is same?
Turbidity measures the cloudiness of a liquid caused by suspended solids, while optical density measures the amount of light absorbed by a sample. They are related in the sense that turbidity can affect optical density measurements, but they are not the same. Turbidity is a measure of the scattering of light by particles in a sample, while optical density is a measure of the absorption of light by a sample.
What house did the Gosselins rent in Park City Utah?
The Gosselins stayed at The Canyons in Park City Utah. See Related Links for the The Canyons website.
Which choice is most related to submarine?
Periscope
How many canyons are in Utah?
Utah has so many canyons because when glaciers came through Utah it left the ground in the form of a canyon. rephrased:there are so many canyons because of the glaciers
