Debris flows composed of diamictic glacial sediment are found on the continental slope offshore of many former ice streams in the Arctic and Antarctic (Vorren et al. 1998). The debris flows are often stacked, making up important building-blocks of the major trough-mouth fans that form huge depocentr...
