Description:
〈span〉〈a href="https://pubs.geoscienceworld.org/aapgbull#b27"〉Yang et al. (2017b)〈/a〉 have advocated the importance of hyperpycnites by using a genetic facies model proposed for deposits of hyperpycnal flows by 〈a href="https://pubs.geoscienceworld.org/aapgbull#b14"〉Mulder et al. (2003)〈/a〉. The problem is that the authors have ignored experimental flume results and other empirical field data that discredited the model. This discussion is a rigorous evaluation of data, documentation, and the facies model.〈/span〉
