Autocyclic processes such as tidal-flat progradation or tidal-flat island progradation are also possible mechanisms for the Gibraltar cycles. |
This study exemplifies very clearly the sort of stratal geometries that result from the progradation of specific, temperate carbonate sedimentary systems. |
Overall the temporal progradation of nappe emplacement and high-pressure metamorphism towards the south mimics the southward retreat of the Hellenic subduction zone. |
Their internal structure shows growth by combined vertical aggradation and progradation away from the symmetry plane. |
This study demonstrates a close relationship between sedimentary styles and stratal geometries resulting from progradation of specific sedimentary systems. |
Marine deposition was followed by alluvial progradation marking the onset of continental deposition, which dominated the rest of the Triassic in the region. |
