Analogues, especially outcrop analogues, have played a central role in improving
understanding of subsurface reservoir architectures. Analogues provide important …

Submarine channel-related thin-bedded turbidites are deposited in environments such as
external levees, internal levees, depositional terraces and at times of channel abandonment …

Submarine gravity flows are a key process for transporting large volumes of sediment from
the continents to the deep sea. The location, volume, and character of the sediment …

The processes within deep-sea sediment-routing systems are difficult to directly monitor.
Therefore, we rely on other means to decipher the sequence and relative magnitude of the …

The Cretaceous Tres Pasos Formation of southern Chile records a slope system
characterized by> 800 m of paleo-bathymetric relief. Channel deposits are exposed in an …

Initial porosity and permeability in deep-water systems are controlled by primary
sedimentary texture and mineralogy. Therefore, understanding the sedimentary processes …

The Messinian incised-valley fill sediments “IVFs” of the Abu Madi Formation comprise the
most prospective hydrocarbon-bearing reservoirs in the Nile Delta onshore and offshore. An …

Submarine-channel systems record basin-margin sediment dispersal and can host
significant natural resources. We review the facies architecture (ie, facies heterogeneity and …

Turbidity currents distribute sediment across the seafloor, forming important archives of
tectonic and climatic change on the Earth's surface. Turbidity current deposition is affected …

Subaqueous sediment gravity-flow (SSGF) deposits have recently been recognized as a
major reservoir plays in lacustrine basins. Research on their genesis and depositional …
