The depositional signature of cyclic steps: A late Quaternary analogue compared to modern active delta slopes

International audience Cyclic‐step bedforms typifying a Froude‐supercritical flow regime are a recurrent component of depositional/erosional turbiditic systems. Over modern delta slopes, cyclic steps have been inferred from observations of upslope‐migrating crescent‐shaped bedforms. However, the rec...
