The role of compaction contrasts in sediments in décollement initiation in an accretionary prism [PDF]
, 2011 International audienceTo understand how décollements develop into the pristine sedimentary succession entering subduction zones, we have performed mechanical tests on samples from the sediment column entering the Nankai accretionary prism, Japan (ODP ...

Fluid flow through carbonate platforms as evidence for deep-seated reservoirs in Northwest Australia [PDF]
, 2016 Fluid flow features in carbonate platforms of the outer Browse Basin, Northwest Australia, are investigated using 3D seismic and borehole data. During the Cenozoic, the study area evolved from a carbonate ramp to a rimmed platform with isolated carbonate
