Mangarara Formation: exhumed remnants of a middle Miocene, temperate carbonate, submarine channel-fan system on the eastern margin of Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The middle Miocene Mangarara Formation is a thin (1–60 m), laterally discontinuous unit of moderately to highly calcareous (40–90%) facies of sandy to pure limestone, bioclastic sandstone, and conglomerate that crops out in a few valleys in North ...

Hybrid turbidite–contourite systems in the modern Tarakan Basin: seismic sedimentology and analogue for subsurface storage

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Hybrid turbidite–contourite systems are present where gravity-driven and bottom-current processes interact. Although recent studies have advanced our understanding, deciphering the relative roles of downslope and alongslope processes in shaping the deep ...
