Shelf-margin or shelf-edge deltas are a common constituent of Quaternary shelves, where
their genetic link to falling and lowstand sea level has been well established, but they are …

Sedimentary rocks contain the most important archive of environmental change through
earth history. They record changing climates, the movement of plates, and the rise and fall of …

Nonrenewable energy resources, comprising fossil fuels and uranium, are not ran domly
distributed within the Earth's crust. They formed in response to a complex array of geologic …

Organic matter burial in the deep-sea fan sediments is an important component of the long-
term carbon cycle. Although there is increasing recognition of the importance of organic …

Abstract Sequence stratigraphic models are:(1) discussed from a theoretical point of view,
with emphasis on a systematical discussion of the breakdown of depositional cycles …

Sinuous deep-water channels display a wide range of geometries and internal architectures.
Most modern examples have been documented from large passive-margin fans, supplied by …

Hybrid event beds comprising both clean and mud‐rich sandstone are important
components of many deep‐water systems and reflect the passage of turbulent sediment …

Stratigraphy is often interpreted within hierarchical, or scale-dependent, frameworks that
subdivide deposits based on distinct jumps in characteristics such as duration of deposition …

Remobilization of sandstones can dramatically reconfigure original depositional geometries
and results in very unusually shaped sandstones, which resemble little, if any, of the original …

Folds and faults preserved within slump horizons are thought to be the only sedimentary
structures that primarily reflect palaeoslope direction. By evaluating methods for the analysis …
