I am sorry - but I do not understand why you think a global flood, just like the one you interpret in the bible, would create a turbidite?You did not address my question on the nature of the Genesis Flood.
If we ASSUME there were a flood like the Genesis Flood, then what kind of turbidite we expect to see? Whatever it looks like, I don't think a "classical" sedimentologist would be able to identify it easily. For example, could the grain size only changes from coarse sand to median sand in a sandstone formation? Would you call that a turbidite bed? Could that be a turbidite bed made in a super size flood?
If we make that assumption - then what does it change? Based upon the evidence, no global flood happened. There is no evidence whatsoever of a global flood. None.
Therefore your assumption remains in the realm of a thought experiment.
Also, look up reverse grading to learn about the environments that create such a sedimentary phenomena.
