Research on the architecture of submarine-fan lobes in the Niger Delta Basin, offshore West Africa

open access: yesJournal of Palaeogeography, 2016
As one of the most important reservoirs in submarine fan, submarine lobes are hot fields for the deep-water oil–gas exploration in the world. Although a large amount of researches have been carried out on the architecture model of submarine lobes ...

Sedimentary processes and architecture of Upper Cretaceous deep-sea channel deposits : a case from the Skole Nappe, Polish Outer Carpathians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Deep-sea channels are one of the architectonic elements, forming the main conduits for sand and gravel material in the turbidite depositional systems.

Evolution of submarine canyons and hanging-wall fans: insights from geomorphic experiments and morphodynamic models [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Tectonics play a significant role in shaping the morphology of submarine canyons, which form essential links in source-to-sink (S2S) systems. It is difficult, however, to investigate the resulting morphodynamics over the long term.

Submarine and Subaerial Morphological Changes Associated with the 2014 Eruption at Stromboli Island

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Stromboli is an active insular volcano located in the Southern Tyrrhenian Sea and its recent volcanic activity is mostly confined within the Sciara del Fuoco (SdF, hereafter), a 2-km wide subaerial–submarine collapse scar, which morphologically dominates

Swath Mapping on the Continental Shelf and Slope: The Eel River Basin, Northern California [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
First Paragraph The STRATAFORM program sponsored by the Office of Naval Research (Nittrouer and Kravitz, 1996, this issue) seeks to understand how sedimentary processes lead to the formation of the stratigraphic sequences on continental margins.

Grain-Size and Discharge Controls on Submarine-Fan Depositional Patterns From Forward Stratigraphic Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2019
Submarine fans are important components of continental margins; they contain a stratigraphic record of environmental changes and host large accumulations of oil and gas.

Classification of turbidite fans of Meishan Formation in Qiongdongnan Basin and their exploration significance

open access: yesYouqi dizhi yu caishoulu, 2023
The turbidite fans of Miocene Meishan Formation in Qiongdongnan Basin are important targets for natural gas exploration in the northern South China Sea, and the types of turbidite fan is closely related to reservoir development.

Source-to-sink processes and genetic mechanism of progradational and lateral accretion submarine fans in the Qiongdongnan Basin, South China Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Submarine fan reservoirs are important accumulation zones for oil, gas, and natural gas hydrates, offering significant potential for hydrocarbon exploration.

Submarine depositional terraces at Salina Island (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea) and implications on the Late-Quaternary evolution of the insular shelf [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The integrated analysis of high-resolution multibeam bathymetry and single-channel seismic profiles around Salina Island allowed us to characterize the stratigraphic architecture of the insular shelf.

An early Proterozoic metagreywacke-slate turbidite sequence: The Tampere schist belt, southwestern Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1986
The metasedimentary sequence of the Tampere Schist belt, where it has undergone only slight metamorphism, clearly consisted of graded graywackes, siltstones and mudstones.
