Thrust Faults Promoted Hydrocarbon Leakage at the Compressional Zone of Fine-Grained Mass-Transport Deposits

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Fine-grained mass-transport deposits (MTDs), especially their compressional toe zones, are traditionally considered as effective seal in constraining the vertical fluid migration underneath.

Structural constraints on the subduction of mass-transport deposits in convergent margins [PDF]

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2020
Abstract The subduction of large and heterogeneous mass-transport deposits (MTDs) is discussed to modify the structure and physical state of the plate boundary and therewith exert an influence on seismicity in convergent margins. Understanding which subduction-zone architectures and structural boundary conditions favour the subduction of MTDs,

Bed-parallel slip: Identifying missing displacement in mass transport deposits [PDF]

Journal of Structural Geology, 2020
Abstract Bed-parallel slip (BPS), where neighbouring beds slide past one another along bedding planes, is notoriously difficult to identify without reference to pre-existing features such as steep faults or dykes that act as markers to record BPS offset.

Kinematics of Mass Transport Deposits revealed by magnetic fabrics [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2017
AbstractThe internal deformation and movement directions of Mass Transport Deposits (MTDs) are key factors in understanding the kinematics and dynamics of their emplacement. Although these are relatively easy to recover from well‐bedded sediments, they are more difficult to deduce from massive beds without visible strain markers.

Free gas accumulations in basal shear zones of mass-transport deposits (Pearl River Mouth Basin, South China Sea): An important geohazard on continental slope basins [PDF]

, 2017
Free gas is an important trigger of instability on continental slopes, and resulting mass-wasting strata can potentially form competent seals to hydrocarbon accumulations.

Recent mass transport deposits in the Gulf of Cagliari

Marine Geology
Sedimentary deposits due to slope failures and submarine landslides are common on continental margins. The availability of five new high resolution 2D multi-channel seismic profiles, integrated by Multibeam data, provides unprecedented insight into the shallow submarine geomorphology of the Gulf of Cagliari.

Relating seafloor geomorphology to subsurface architecture: How mass‐transport deposits and knickpoint‐zones build the stratigraphy of the deep‐water Hikurangi Channel

Sedimentology, 2021
Monitoring of modern deep‐water channels has revealed how migrating channel‐floor features generate and remove stratigraphy, improving understanding of how channel morphologies relate to their deposits.

Shelf-derived mass-transport deposits: origin and significance in the stratigraphic development of trench-slope basins

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, 2021
Continental shelves generally supply large-scale mass-wasting events. Yet, the origin and significance of shelf-derived mass-transport deposits (MTDs) for the tectonostratigraphic evolution of subduction complexes and their trench-slope basins have not ...
