[PDF][PDF] Soft-sediment deformation structures in siliciclastic sediments: an overview

AJ Loon - Geologos, 2009 - bibliotekanauki.pl
Deformations formed in unconsolidated sediments are known as soft-sediment deformation
structures. Their nature, the time of their genesis, and the state in which the sediments …

Cyclic steps and related supercritical bedforms: building blocks of deep-water depositional systems, western North America

JA Covault, S Kostic, CK Paull, Z Sylvester, A Fildani - Marine Geology, 2017 - Elsevier
Cyclic steps are long-wave (the ratio of wavelength to height is≫ 1), upstream-migrating,
upper-flow-regime bedforms bounded by internal hydraulic jumps (ie, transition from …

Subaqueous sediment density flows: Depositional processes and deposit types

PJ Talling, DG Masson, EJ Sumner… - …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Submarine sediment density flows are one of the most important processes for moving
sediment across our planet, yet they are extremely difficult to monitor directly. The speed of …

Hybrid sediment gravity flow deposits–classification, origin and significance

P Haughton, C Davis, W McCaffrey, S Barker - Marine and Petroleum …, 2009 - Elsevier
The deposits of subaqueous sediment gravity flows can show evidence for abrupt and/or
progressive changes in flow behaviour making them hard to ascribe to a single flow type (eg …

Deep-water sediment bypass

CJ Stevenson, CAL Jackson… - Journal of …, 2015 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
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 …

Hybrid submarine flows comprising turbidity current and cohesive debris flow: Deposits, theoretical and experimental analyses, and generalized models

PJ Talling - Geosphere, 2013 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Hybrid flows comprising both turbidity current and submarine debris flow are a significant
departure from many previous influential models for submarine sediment density flows …

Dimensions and architecture of late Pleistocene submarine lobes off the northern margin of East Corsica

ME Deptuck, DJW Piper, B Savoye, A Gervais - Sedimentology, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Sandy lobe deposits on submarine fans are sensitive recorders of the types of sediment
gravity flows supplied to a basin and are economically important as hydrocarbon reservoirs …

Deposit structure and processes of sand deposition from decelerating sediment suspensions

EJ Sumner, LA Amy, PJ Talling - Journal of …, 2008 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Turbidity currents are notoriously difficult to monitor directly, therefore interpretation of their
deposits forms the basis for much of our understanding of these flows. The deceleration rate …

The stratigraphic record and processes of turbidity current transformation across deep‐marine lobes

IA Kane, ASM Pontén, B Vangdal… - …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Sedimentary facies in the distal parts of deep‐marine lobes can diverge significantly from
those predicted by classical turbidite models, and sedimentological processes in these …

Distribution and origin of hybrid beds in sand-rich submarine fans of the Tanqua depocentre, Karoo Basin, South Africa

DM Hodgson - Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2009 - Elsevier
This study documents the stratigraphic and palaeogeographic distribution of hybrid event
beds that comprise both debris-flow (cohesive) and turbidity current (non-cohesive) …
