Mass-transport Complexes

Mass-Transport Complex is a sedimentary deposit formed by the downslope movement of unconsolidated or semi-consolidated material under the influence of gravity, distinguished from other slope sediments by its chaotic internal structure, lack of continuous bedding, and association with submarine landslides or slope failure events.
