A dimensionless framework for predicting submarine fan morphology [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Submarine fans play an important role in routing sediment in continental and deep water settings. Here the authors develop a framework is to explain the shape of submarine fans using a numerical model framework which can either predict seafloor ...

Sedimentary architecture and evolution of a Quaternary sand-rich submarine fan in the South China Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Investigating the sedimentary architecture and evolution of sand-rich submarine fans is vital for comprehending deep-water sedimentary processes and enhancing the success rate of hydrocarbon resource exploration.

Controls of reservoir quality for submarine fan of F4 Formation in the Z oilfield, Illizi Basin, Algeria [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Subaqueous fan reservoirs have emerged as a pivotal focus in recent deep-water oil and gas exploration. In the Illizi Basin of Algeria, a series of submarine fan reservoirs are developed within the Devonian F4 Formation of the Z oilfield.

Possible Tsunami-Induced Sediment Transport From Coral Reef to Deep Sea Through Submarine Canyons on the Southern Ryukyu Forearc, Japan

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Submarine canyons are efficient sediment transport pathways from shallow marine areas to deep sea. Along active margins, large tsunamis are a trigger for sediment transport to deep sea.

Architectural Diversity of Submarine Lobate Deposits

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Lobate deposits in deep-water settings are diverse in their depositional architecture but this diversity is under-represented in the literature. Diverse architectures result from multiple factors including source material, basin margin physiography ...

Drilling of submarine fans in the Indian Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2003
The collision and penetration of India into mainland Asia offers an outstanding laboratory for understanding continental collisions in general. In addition, the region also provides the most dramatic example of solid Earth‐atmospheric coupling in the recent geologic past.
