Acoustically stratified sediments that infill glacially eroded bedrock basins are common in fjords (Seramur et al. 1997; Gilbert et al. 1998; Hogan et al. 2012; Dowdeswell & Vasquez 2013). Internally, such stratified sediments are often characterized by relatively smooth reflections that parallel the seafloor. Sills between basins usually comprise bedrock, sometimes covered by a thin veneer of glacimarine sediment and/or till. Fjords in West Greenland, including Rink Fjord and Vaigat, contain bedrock basins infilled by acoustically stratified sediment (Fig. 1). The basin fills are a product of rain-out from turbid meltwater plumes, probably supplemented by iceberg-rafting and downslope resedimentation.
