Abstract

A series of submarine canyons lead from the Californian coast to the Santa Monica basin and have built a number of small sandy submarine fans (Fig. 28.1). Nardin (1981, 1983) concluded that, ‘In general large-scale fan growth fits Normark’s model in which the suprafan is the primary locus of coarse sediment deposition’. These fans are thus examples of small sandy fans, similar to the well-known Navy Fan.
