Jurassic rifting to post-rift subsidence analysis in the Central High Atlas and its relation to salt diapirism [PDF]
et. al.The subsidence evolution of the Tethyan Moroccan Atlas Basin, presently inverted as the Central High Atlas, is characterized by an Early Jurassic rifting episode, synchronous with salt diapirism of the Triassic evaporite-bearing rocks.

‘Halo-kinematic’ sequence-stratigraphic analysis of minibasins in the deepwater contractional province of the Liguro-Provençal basin, Western Mediterranean [PDF]
This study investigates the co-evolution of gravity-driven thin-skinned salt tectonic processes and minibasin-scale halokinetic-depositional processes for the kinematic analysis of salt diapirs in the diapiric province of the contractional domain of the ...

Salt tectonics and controls on halokinetic-sequence development of an exposed deepwater diapir: The Bakio Diapir, Basque-Cantabrian Basin, Pyrenees [PDF]
This work evaluates growth strata adjacent to the Bakio Diapir in the Basque Pyrenees, aiming to discuss the application of halokinetic-sequence concepts, mainly developed in shallow-water to subaerial environments, to deepwater depositional settings ...

Kinematics of regional salt flow in the northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
International audienceThe kinematics of regional-scale salt flow in the northern Gulf of Mexico is analysed using: (i) a map of shelf-break contours at the termination of successive depositional episodes; (ii) the location and geometry of large-scale ...

Influence of flow containment and substrate entrainment upon sandy hybrid event beds containing a co-genetic mud-clast-rich division [PDF]
Individual sandstone beds containing a co-genetic mud-clast-rich (MCR) division are being increasingly described from the distal reaches of many deep-water fan systems.

Reservoir leakage along concentric faults in the Southern North Sea: implications for the deployment of CCS and EOR techniques [PDF]
High-quality 3D seismic and borehole data in the Broad Fourteens Basin, Southern North Sea, is used to investigate newly recognised concentric faults formed in salt-withdrawal basins flanking reactivated salt structures.

Evolution of an allochthonous salt system, southern Mars-Ursa basin, northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
This study examines the evolution of an allochthonous salt system in the southern Mars-Ursa basin. A seismic stratigraphic framework and biostratigraphic markers provided constraints on basin development and sediment accumulation from late Miocene to ...
