Just a quick question for the geologists here --- has anyone ever actually directly observed a turbidite sediment being deposed by a turbidity current, or does the proposed origin of these sediments rest on inference alone?
​
If the latter, what do you see as the best evidence that turbidite sediments are, in fact, turbidite sediments?
