On the efficacy and limitations of isolated carbonate platforms as “oceanic dipsticks” to reconstruct subsidence histories, a case study from the Paleogene to Neogene strata on Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac, B.W.I.

Marine Geology, 2021
Carbonate sedimentary successions that developed on isolated oceanic islands typically comprise a series of unconformity-bounded packages of strata that reflect eustatic sea level changes superimposed on local tectonic movements. Resolving the subsidence

Holocene development of three isolated carbonate platforms, Belize, Central America

Marine Geology, 1998
Locally operating factors such as topography of the reef basement and exposure to waves and currents rather than regionally effective factors such as the post-glacial sea level rise in the western Atlantic explain the different Holocene developments of ...

Progradation of a middle Eocene carbonate slope system, Assamoud Field, Sirte Basin, north central Libya – Implications on the dynamics of lateral growth of isolated carbonate platforms

Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2021
This study investigates the internal configuration and stacking patterns of well-defined prograding clinothems within the middle Eocene Gialo Formation in the Assamoud Oilfield of the Sirte Basin through an integrated analysis of wire-line log and three ...

Stress states of isolated carbonate platforms: Implications for development and reactivation of natural fractures post burial

, 2021
We use 2D finite element numerical geomechanical modeling to interrogate how different scenarios of far field stress regimes, rock mechanical properties and margin morphology affect stresses post burial within a generic isolated carbonate platform.

Anatomy and depositional systems of Cretaceous isolated carbonate platforms of the western Gulf of Mexico

Geological Society of America Bulletin
Carbonate platform systems reached a global acme during the Cretaceous, occupying shallow shelves throughout the Gulf of Mexico and recording some of the world’s most diverse platform systems.

Isolated Cretaceous Carbonate Platforms Of The Mediterranean: The Example Of Bagnolo

Eastern Mediterranean Workshop 2018, 2018
The recent discovery of Zohr and Calypso gas fields in Egypt and Cyprus offshore opened a new play concept for the Eastern Mediterranean area, focused on high-relief isolated carbonate platforms of Cretaceous age.
