Bottom Current Processes

Bottom Current Processes is a sediment transport mechanism belonging to the class of deep-marine and lacustrine depositional processes, distinguished by the persistent movement of density-driven, near-bottom water flows that selectively erode, transport, and deposit fine-grained sediments along continental slopes and basin floors.
