Ten turbidite myths (自动保存的).docxVIP

AbstractDuring the past 50 years, the turbidite paradigm has promoted many myths related to deep-water turbidite deposition. JohnE. Sanders (1926–1999), a pioneering process sedimentologist, first uncovered many of these turbidite myths.(在过去的50年中，浊流的概念促进了许多深水浊积沉积相关的错误的看法和认识。作为不断开创先河的沉积学者的约翰·桑德斯（1926–1999）首先发现了许多这些浊积岩的错误的看法和认识) This paperprovides a reality check by undoing 10 of these turbidite myths（本文通过10种这些认识的错误的原因来说明）. Myth No. 1: turbidity currents are non-turbulent flows withmultiple sediment-support mechanisms. Reality: turbidity currents are turbulent flows in which turbulence is the principalsediment-support mechanism（1.浊流是有多种沉积物支撑机制的非湍流。现实：浊流是以沉积物支撑机制为主的湍流）. Myth No. 2: turbidites are deposits of debris flows, grain flows, fluidized flows, and turbiditycurrents. Reality: turbidites are theexclusive deposits of turbidity currents.（2.浊积岩是碎屑流，颗粒流，液化流和浊流的沉积物。现实：浊积岩只是浊流沉积物）Myth No. 3: turbidity currents are high-velocityflows and therefore they elude documentation. Reality: turbidity currents operate under a wide range of velocity conditions.（3.浊流是都是高速流动的，因此他们不能被记录，缺少物理证据。现实：浊流能在在很宽泛的速度条件下形成）Myth No. 4: high-density turbidity currents are true turbidity currents. Reality: Ph. H. Kuenen (1950) introduced the concept of‘‘turbidity currents of high density’’ based on experimental debris flows, not turbidity currents. High-density turbidity currentsare sandy debris flows.（4.高密度浊流都是真正的浊流。现实：昆宁（1950）是在碎屑流的试验上提出了“高密度浊流的概念而不是浊流。高密度浊流是砂质碎屑流） Myth No. 5: slurry flows are high-density turbidity currents. Reality: slurry-flows are debris flows.（5.泥质流是高密度浊流。现实：泥质流是碎屑流）MythNo. 6: flute structures are indicative of turbidite deposition. Reality: flute structures are indicative only of flow erosion, notdeposition.（6.槽模构造指示了浊流沉积。现实：槽模构造只能指示水流侵蚀作用的发生并不包括沉积作用）Myth No. 7: normal grading is a product of multiple depositional events. Reality: normal grading is the product of asingle depositional event.（7.正粒序是多个沉积事件产物。现实：正粒序是单一沉积事件产物）Myth No. 8: cross-bedding is a product of turbidity
