Abstract

A continued explanation of a model is presented for the erosional effects in the mid and late Flood due to vertical tectonics of the crust coupled with Flood water movement. The sediments eroded during the sheet erosion phase would be deposited as sheets along the edge of the continents forming the continental margin. As the Flood flow became more channelized during the Dispersive Phase, canyons and valleys would be rapidly eroded. Water and wind gaps, as well as pediments—all mysterious within the uniformitarian paradigm—would form rapidly on land. Submarine canyons would quickly be cut on the continental shelves and slopes. The model has significant implications for other models and concepts concerning the Flood.
