Deep-sea Ordovician lingulide brachiopods and their associated burrows suggest an early colonization of proximal turbidite systems [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Trace fossils from Ordovician deep-marine environments are typically produced by a shallow endobenthos adapted to live under conditions of food scarcity by means of specialized grazing, farming, and trapping strategies, preserved in low-energy ...

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

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

Orientations of Mistaken Point Fronds Indicate Morphology Impacted Ability to Survive Turbulence

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Ediacaran fossils of the Mistaken Point E surface have provided crucial insight into early animal communities, including how they reproduced, the importance of Ediacaran height and what the most important factors were to their community dynamics ...

Submarine paleoseismology in the Japan Trench of northeastern Japan: turbidite stratigraphy and sedimentology using paleomagnetic and rock magnetic analyses

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023
Previous studies of sediments recovered from the Japan Trench between 37° 25′ N and 38° 30′ N document distinctive turbidite beds induced by huge earthquakes.

Submarine lobe deposits of the Point Loma Formation, California: Quantifying event‐bed architecture and lateral heterogeneity

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2021
Over the last several years, numerous outcrop localities have been revisited to add quantitative detail to submarine lobe facies models that previously focussed on facies relationships in a qualitative sense.

A siliciclastic shallow-marine turbidite on the carbonate shelf of the Ordovician Baltoscandian palaeobasin [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2019
A metre-scale thick siltstone–sandstone lobe is described within the Dapingian outer ramp argillaceous limestone facies of the Baltoscandian palaeobasin.

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.

Comparing Aggradation, Superelevation, and Avulsion Frequency of Submarine and Fluvial Channels

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Constraining the avulsion dynamics of rivers and submarine channels is essential for predicting the distribution of sediment, organic matter, and pollutants in alluvial, deltaic, and submarine settings.

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.

A workflow for turbidite reservoir characterization—a case study of the Macedon member, Northern Carnarvon Basin, NW Australia

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Deep-water turbidite systems on passive continental margins are of interest for oil and gas exploration. However, their complexity poses challenges for reservoir characterization.
