Process-product studies have been central to the development of process sedimentology
over the past few decades, with the ability to first measure flows, and then examine the …

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 …

Climbing‐ripple cross‐lamination is most commonly deposited by turbidity currents when
suspended load fallout and bedload transport occur contemporaneously. The angle of ripple …

Recent analysis of modern aggradational continental sedimentary basins reveals that
sedimentation patterns are dominated by distributive fluvial systems (DFSs). The Salt Wash …

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 …

Flutes and tool marks are commonly observed sedimentary structures on the bases of
sandstones in deep‐water successions. These sole structures are universally used as …

Large accumulations of oil and gas have been found in fan delta conglomerate reservoirs in
the upper Triassic Baikouquan Formation in the Mahu Sag at the northwestern margin of the …

Submarine canyons and slope channel systems are important conveyers of sediment from
uplifted catchments to oceanic sedimentary sinks. Long-lived conduits can be established …

Resolving the role of longitudinal versus transverse sediment dispersal in ancient
sedimentary basins is paramount for understanding filling history and the timing of source …

Abstract Magallanes–Austral Basin (MAB) fill is preserved along a> 1000 km north–south
trending outcrop belt in the southern Patagonia region of Argentina and Chile. Although the …
