对加州南部两个盆地的底床深度和底部附近的沃茨进行了网格取样，并分析了由于浊流造成的温度、盐度、氧含量、营养盐和悬浮泥沙含量的可能异常。唯一显着的异常模式显示的低盐度和高悬浮泥沙，顶部的浊流停机坪对面的两个海底峡谷的嘴。这水可能是由浊流侵位，它的存在表明，在其他地方的底层水属性的区域变化值得详细的研究。
Waters at the sill depths and near the bottoms of two basins off southern California were sampled in a grid pattern and analyzed for possible anomalies in temperature, salinity, and contents of oxygen, nutrients and suspended sediment due to turbidity currents. The only significantly anomalous patterns revealed were those of low salinity and high suspended sediment, atop a turbidity-current apron opposite the mouths of two submarine canyons. This water was probably emplaced by turbidity currents, and its presence here indicates that areal variations of bottom-water properties elsewhere warrant detailed studies.
