The dynamics of the deep-sea Bottom Boundary Layer (BBL) directly control the deep-sea sedimentation process, making it the most important energy and material exchange layer in deep-sea science. According to existing sporadic observations, BBL dynamics controlled by multi-scale motions in the ocean differ greatly from current theories, and there remains a lack of systematic quantitative studies on the deep-sea sedimentation process influenced by BBL dynamics. Based on the theoretical framework, sporadic in-situ observations, and numerical and laboratory research, the following points are reviewed and summarized herein:
