Gravity-driven Sedimentation

Gravity-Driven Sedimentation is a geological process in which slope sediments are transported and deposited under the influence of gravitational forces, distinguished from other sedimentation mechanisms by its primary reliance on gravity-induced downslope movement such as landslides, debris flows, and turbidity currents.
