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 …

Hierarchical classifications are used in the field of clastic deep-marine sedimentary geology
to assign spatial and temporal order to the sedimentary architecture of preserved deep …

Submarine lobe-fringe deposits form heterolithic successions that may include a high
proportion of hybrid beds. The identification of lobe-fringe successions aids interpretation of …

Submarine lobe dimensions from six different systems are compared: 1) the exhumed
Permian Fan 3 lobe complex of the Tanqua Karoo, South Africa; 2) the modern Amazon fan …

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 …

A widely misused criterion to interpret lobe deposits in submarine fan systems at outcrop,
and in core and well logs, is a thickening and/or coarsening upward profile. Lobe deposits …

Submarine channel-lobe transition zones separate well-defined channels from well-defined
lobes and form morphologically complicated areas, commonly located at breaks in slope …

Deepwater turbidite lobe reservoirs have massive hydrocarbon potential and represent one
of the most promising exploration targets for hydrocarbon industry. Key elements of turbidite …

Hybrid event beds are texturally and compositionally‐diverse deposits preserved within
deepwater settings. They are deposited by flows exhibiting 'mixed behaviour', forming …

Intraslope lobe deposits provide a process record of the infill of accommodation on
submarine slopes and their recognition enables the accurate reconstruction of the …
