ulted in non-bifurcated aggrading channels that extend 200 km across the sand-rich Bryant Fan to feed single distal depositional lobes of ~ 30 km in length. The Bryant mini-basin and fan patterns provide analogues for the Miocene systems in the Mississippi Canyon area. In contrast, the mud-rich Mississippi Delta and 20 km-wide gullied canyon sediment source has resulted in multiple mid-fan channel bifurcations and outer fan channel splays in 200 km long lobes of the mud-rich Mississippi Fan. Extensive MTD’s deposit during lowering and rising sea level episodes and are intermixed at all scales (~400 km debris sheets to 10 cm MTD beds) with the channel and lobe turbidite deposits. Similar to Bryant Canyon and Mississippi Fan, intermixing of turbidites and extensive MTD’s is found in some subsurface turbidite systems of the GOM margin.
