Architecture of turbidite channel systems on the continental slope: patterns and predictions
The study of many slope channel systems has led to the development of rules in the form of
observations, measurements, and hypotheses. For example, we hypothesize that high …

Turbidite channel reservoirs—Key elements in facies prediction and effective development
M Mayall, E Jones, M Casey - Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2006 - Elsevier
Turbidite channels are important but frequently complex reservoirs in the exploration,
appraisal and development of deep-water facies. Over the last 10 years in particular, high …

A model of submarine channel-levee evolution based on channel trajectories: Implications for stratigraphic architecture
Channel-levee systems are frequently interpreted as having a long history of cut-and-fill by
channel-shaped features of different scales. Results from a simple geometric model based …
