Created by a series of complex processes, submarine canyons continue to be carved by sporadic turbidity currents waterfalls of sand, gravel, and muddy sediments.

There are a number of processes that could fit this description including mud / debris flows and solifluction (both types of "mass wasting"). In pelagic / benthic (marine) settings turbidity currents would also fit this description. Please see the related links.

The suffix for "submarine" is "-marine," which means related to the sea or marine environment.
Turbidity measures the cloudiness of a liquid caused by suspended solids, while optical density measures the amount of light absorbed by a sample. They are related in the sense that turbidity can affect optical density measurements, but they are not the same. Turbidity is a measure of the scattering of light by particles in a sample, while optical density is a measure of the absorption of light by a sample.

Turbidity currents are associated with the formation of graded beds, which are sedimentary structures characterized by a gradual change in grain size from coarser materials at the bottom to finer materials at the top. This occurs as the turbulent flow of sediment-laden water moves down a slope, depositing sediments in layers as the current slows. Graded bedding is commonly found in deep-sea environments and can also occur in river deltas and lake beds. These structures provide valuable insights into past depositional environments and sedimentary processes.
