Similar stratal geometries have been described from comparable levels in the Chalk of the North Sea, and in outcrop in Britain and France. |
|
The basic characteristics of a stratal unit may be strongly controlled by source-area lithology. |
|
The stratal geometries that are characteristic of the unconformity depend strongly on structural and geographical position within the basin. |
|
Strong, continuous stratal reflections characterize the shallow subsurface on the upper and middle shelf. |
|
Depositional patterns within syn-tectonic stratal units give insights into the spatial characteristics of the fault zone at particular stages of its evolution. |
|
However, although many of the reflection terminations appear indicative of stratal truncation it may not be the only cause of reflection termination. |
|
If these progradational features are indicative of true stratal geometries they suggest significant transport of sediment across the sea bed during deposition. |
|
The correlation is supported by an analysis of stratal expansion, throw development, and data on the sandstone ratio of corresponding footwall and hanging-wall intervals. |
|
This study demonstrates a close relationship between sedimentary styles and stratal geometries resulting from progradation of specific sedimentary systems. |
|
This study exemplifies very clearly the sort of stratal geometries that result from the progradation of specific, temperate carbonate sedimentary systems. |
