Stratigraphic evolution and carbonate factory implications: Case study of the Albian carbonates of the Campos Basin, Brazil

The Depositional Record, 2021
Carbonate deposits are numerous and have undeniable economic appeal for the oil industry. However, there are many uncertainties associated with different aspects of these lithologies.

Unsupervised hierarchical sequence stratigraphy framework of carbonate successions

Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences
Performing the high-resolution stratigraphic analysis may be challenging and time-consuming if one has to work with large datasets. Moreover, sedimentary records have signals of different frequencies and intrinsic noise, resulting in a complex signature ...

THE MICROFACIES, SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY AND GENESIS OF THE UPPER DEVONIAN PHOSPHORITES IN THE NORTH OF KERMAN, SE IRAN

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2020
This research focuses on the microfacies, sequence stratigraphy and genesis of the upper Devonian phosphate-rich deposits in the Kerman province, SE Iran. These deposits are investigated in the Sarashk and Hutk sections, which are the most complete upper

Sequence Stratigraphy of Middle Albian to Cenomanian sediments (Sarvak Formation) in Tang-e-Chenarbashi (southeast Ilam) and role of fossil fauna for recognition and interpretation of the depositional sequences [PDF]

Journal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2018
Middle Albian to Cenomanian strata of the Sarvak Formation indicate pelagic facies in Tang-e-Chenarbashi stratigraphic section. These strata deposited in five sequences of the third order and nine sequences of the fourth order.

Sedimentary Characteristics and Lithological Trap Identification of Distant Braided Delta Deposits: A Case on Upper Cretaceous Yogou Formation of Termit Basin, Niger

E3S Web of Conferences, 2018
Lithological trap identification in thin sand and thick shale layers is still a challenge for hydrocarbon exploration. Based on the high-resolution sequence stratigraphy theory and the establishment of high-resolution sequence stratigraphy framework with

Sequence stratigraphy in Proterozoic successions

Geology, 1988
Sedimentological logging and facies mapping have been used to identify depositional sequences bounded by subtle but regionally persistent unconformities in rocks of Proterozoic age in the western United States, South Australia, and northwestern Canada. We conclude from these studies that the sequence stratigraphic approach is of considerable importance

Is there a role for sequence stratigraphy in chronostratigraphy?

Stratigraphy, 2007
Sequence stratigraphy revolutionized the field of stratigraphy in the late 1970s and 1980s by providing an interpretive depositional framework for integrating diverse stratigraphic data at the scale of sedimentary basins. However, a lack of consensus on criteria for recognizing, mapping and hence dating sequence boundaries, interpretations of uneven ...

NEW OUTCROP AND SUBSURFACE DATA IN THE TERTIARY PIEDMONT BASIN (NW-ITALY): UNCONFORMITY-BOUNDED STRATIGRAPHIC UNITS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIPS WITH BASIN-MODIFICATION PHASES

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2009
This paper deals with the regional stratigraphy around the Alps-Apennines junction during late Eocene-Miocene. The basin-fill architecture and its relation to changes in structural style were deciphered through the integration of subsurface and outcrop ...

Periodic Law Patterns of Sequence Stratigraphy

Earth Science Informatics, 2023
AbstractBased on the current theory of sequence stratigraphy, this study employs stillstand normal regression (SNR) to replace the method of highstand normal regression (HNR) to establish shoreline trajectory and sediment supply models of off-lap and onlap-type sequences, respectively.
