快速水流、高浓度悬浮沉积物和槽状泥床与频繁的深海风暴中的侵蚀有关，在那里，快速的深层平均水流因强烈的间歇性水流而增强（或逆转）。这发生在墨西哥湾流或其环下方约5公里处。风暴的减弱阶段导致底形的发展和泥毯的快速沉积。世界海洋的其他几个区域也有深海风暴活动的证据。
Fast currents, high concentrations of suspended sediment and grooved mud beds are associated with erosion in frequent abyssal storms where a fast deep mean flow is augmented (or reversed) by intense intermittent currents. This occurs about 5 km below the Gulf Stream or its rings. The waning phase of a storm results in development of bedforms and rapid deposition of a mud blanket. Several other regions of the world ocean display evidence of abyssal storm activity.
