Examples of crevasse

• Since rock walls do not contain any cementing material, the runoff water is retained, filtered, and slowly released through the existing crevasses.

• Transported logs and wood fragments occur in siltstone and sandstone units variously interpreted as river channel deposits, flood deposits and crevasse splay deposits.

• In clear weather they got across the final crevasses and moved down just ahead of a descending cloud base.

• They found that a crevasse 15 km in height in an ice shell 75 km thick would trap y4.9r109 m3 of ammonia- water.

• Each time you move from one gallery to another you cross the line of a crevasse and glimpse the horizon.

• These sheer crevasses provide a strongly contained view of the horizon.

• Sheeted sandstone deposits represent crevasse splays, which deposited sand more uniformly in overbank areas.

• They are assigned to a crevasse splay origin.
