Modeling is an invaluable tool for studying sedimentary basin filling and for understanding
depositional processes with long recurrence intervals, including channel avulsion …

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 …

The study of many slope channel systems has led to the development of rules in the form of
observations, measurements, and hypotheses. For example, we hypothesize that high …

The discovery of the super-giant Coral and Mamba gas fields in the offshore of Northern
Mozambique provides a unique insight into the architecture of a new deep-water play-type …

Turbidity currents, and other types of submarine sediment density flow, redistribute more
sediment across the surface of the Earth than any other sediment flow process, yet their …

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 study combines interpretation of 3D seismic imagery of submarine sinuous channel
belts in offshore West Africa with observations from a range of outcrop analogues. Five main …

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 …

Two scales of levee confinement are commonly recognised from submarine channel-levee
systems on the seafloor and in the subsurface. Large-scale external levees bound the entire …

This handbook is vital for understanding the origin of deep-water sandstones, emphasizing
sandy-mass transport deposits (SMTDs) and bottom-current reworked sands (BCRSs) in …
