Abstract
Describes numerous slumped beds and carbonate turbidities. The reconstructed paleotopography suggest the merging of two submarine valleys, each more than 70 km long, 800 m deep and several kilometers wide. The gravity-flow deposits (slumps and debris-flows) form nested channelized deposits in these valleys. -from English summary
