| Definitionskos:definition | A type of FLOW where the sediments (mud) fluidised by gas and water form a muddy slurry which moves downslope from the flanks of a MUD VOLCANO. The composition of the mudflows can be highly variable and usually corresponds directly to the nature of the conduit and the lithology of the mobilised sediments, although it may also include loose conduit wall rock fragments removed by the ascending mud at the initial phase of an eruptive cycle. |
