Aftermath of comfan-Comments, not solutions

January 1, 1984

Comparison of descriptions of fans in this volume demonstrates the major problems in developing general models that incorporate modern fans and ancient turbidite sequences. Attempts to develop a unifying fan model are presently premature. The most pressing need is refined definition of the primary common characteristics of submarine turbidite systems such as fans. ?? 1984 Springer-Verlag New York Inc.
