Three processes are called to explain the deposition of hemipelagic muds accounting for around 95 % of deposits in the Alboran Sea during the Holocene: general currents, distal part of a turbidite current, or a combination of these two causes a "gravity-assisted bottom current". We will discuss these hypotheses based on the results of the study of superficial sediment samples and the current measurements conducted during the Polymède II cruise (April-May 1972) by the R.S. "Jean Charcot", as well as on recent works about this region's hydrology (Lanoix, 1972). |
