continental slope
[ choose ] biogenous oozes glacial-marine sediments pelagic clay clastic terrigenous sediments - sand, silt, and clay
deep ocean floor, ~3-5 km deep
[ choose ] biogenous oozes glacial-marine sediments pelagic clay clastic terrigenous sediments - sand, silt, and clay
polar regions (e. g., antarctica)
[ choose ] biogenous oozes glacial-marine sediments pelagic clay clastic terrigenous sediments - sand, silt, and clay
deep abyssal plain, > 5 km (below the carbonate compensation depth)
[ choose ] biogenous oozes glacial-marine sediments pelagic clay clastic terrigenous sediments - sand, silt, and clay
2. what are the three principal agents that transport terrigenous sediments to the ocean? how do these different transport mechanisms influence the character and composition of the sediments formed and determine their sites of deposition?
3. what processes are involved in the movement of terrigenous material from the continental shelf to the continental slope and the continental rise and what features of these sediment deposits facilitate recognition of their transport mechanism?
