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

This book provides readers with a well-balanced blend of high-quality photographs, figures
and accompanying texts on the identification of trace fossils, both in core and in outcrop …

The deep-marine environment is a complex setting in which numerous processes—settling
of pelagic and hemipelagic particles in the water column, sediment gravity flows (downslope …

The ichnofacies paradigm has evolved over a six-decade period since its original inception
by Dolf Seilacher. It is a multidimensional framework underpinned by recurring, facies …

Turbiditic depositional systems are characterized by diverse, pre-and post-depositional trace
fossils dominated by pascichnia, fodinichnia, agrichnia, and chemichnia. They belong …

Abstract The Mesozoic Marine Revolution (MMR) was a major evolutionary episode
involving the large-scale restructuring of shallow-marine benthic communities and the rise to …

Contourite deposits are significant facies in deep-water sedimentary environments because
they record critical paleoclimatological and paleoceanographic data. Contourite research …

Trace fossils and bioturbational structures are import ant component of deep-sea sediment
fabric. Various ecological factors controlling distribution of their producers can be …

Decapod crustaceans are among the most efficient ecosystem engineers of the
Phanerozoic, but the path that led to their engineering success is poorly known. The …

The distribution of conventional subichnofacies in deep‐water fan systems (ie Ophiomorpha
rudis–Paleodictyon–Nereites‐subichnofacies) depends on the presence of fully turbulent …
