...KENNETH J. HSÜ Abstract Large rockfalls commonly generate fast-moving streams of debris that have been called “sturzstroms.” The geometry of sturzstrom deposits is similar to that of mudflows, lava flows, and glaciers. Sturzstroms can move along a flat course for unexpectedly large distances...

... such mobility is uncertain, but it may have flowed in a similar fashion to a sturzstrom, despite its modest volume (c. 12500m 3 ) and the equally modest height of the cliff (44-45 m). If this suggestion is correct, the minimum volume of detached rock required to trigger sturzstrom-type flow is 1-2 orders...

Figure 8. Map showing the locations of photographs of deposits on and within the sturzstrom. Letters on the map indicate the locations from which the photographs were taken and match the letters on the photographs shown in the figure. (a) View toward the proximal end of the sturzstrom, looking southwest from point a (shown on the map). Mahras Dağ and the large slump block at the head of the landslide complex can be seen in the distance. The large limestone boulders from the Mut Formation in the foreground are typical of the deposits found on the surface of sturzstroms. (b) View toward the distal end (toe) of the sturzstrom, looking north from point b, as shown on the map. Large boulders of Mut Limestone can be seen on the surface of the sturzstrom. (c) A gully cut into the sturzstrom shows the structure of the internal deposits. The photograph was taken in the large gully at point c (shown on the map). The deposits internal to the sturzstrom are highly angular jigsaw clasts of Mut Limestone in a powdered rock matrix. The deposits exhibit a highly brecciated appearance.

Figure 6. Topographic and shaded relief map of the Mahras Dağ complex landslide. The arcuate headscarp is at the southwest corner of the map on Mahras Dağ. The landslide crosses the Göksu River at Çoğla Canyon and extends across the Göksu River Valley to the northeast for approximately 7.3 km. The map shows the four main segments of the landslide: slump (1); sturzstrom (2); block slide (3); and Çoğla Canyon (4). Line A–A' is the cross-section line used to develop Figure 7.

On the lateral edges of the flow, marine mud (containing an upper bathyal fauna) was incorporated into the moving mass and turned it locally into a subaqueous debris flow. A conglomerate with mud matrix would be deposited from catastrophic sediment flows, and cobbly mudstones from...
