The Turbidite Problem* [PDF]

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, 1969
Abstract The turbidity current hypothesis has met with much support as well as severe criticism. Dogmatic statements in support of this hypothesis are not uncommon in the literature and a clear distinction between fact and inference is not always made.

Supercycle in great earthquake recurrence along the Japan Trench over the last 4000 years

Geoscience Letters, 2018
On the landward slope of the Japan Trench, the mid-slope terrace (MST) is located at a depth of 4000–6000 m. Two piston cores from the MST were analyzed to assess the applicability of the MST for turbidite paleoseismology and to find out reliable ...

Turbidites as indicators of paleotopography, Upper Miocene Lake Pannon, Western Mecsek Mountains (Hungary)

Geologica Carpathica, 2015
The floor of Lake Pannon covering the Pannonian Basin in the Late Miocene had considerable relief, including both deep sub-basins, like the Drava Basin, and basement highs, like the Mecsek Mts, in close proximity.

Depositional architecture of marginal multiple-source ramp of the Magura Basin (Eocene Flysch formation, Outer Western Carpathians)

Geologica Carpathica, 2018
The Zembrzyce Beds were studied to interpret the environments and facies in the western part of the Siary Subunit. New sedimentological data were obtained for the reconstruction of the depositional architecture of the Zembrzyce Beds.

Lowstand Turbidites and Delta Systems of the Itararé Group in the Vidal Ramos region (SC), southern Brazil

Brazilian Journal of Geology
Turbidites have captioned the attention of sedimentologists during the last decades due their importance as hydrocarbon reservoirs. However, their relationship to delta systems still deserves further studies.

Repeated occurrence of surface-sediment remobilization along the landward slope of the Japan Trench by great earthquakes

Earth, Planets and Space, 2020
Deep-sea turbidites have been utilized to understand the history of past large earthquakes. Surface-sediment remobilization is considered to be a mechanism for the initiation of earthquake-induced turbidity currents, based on the studies on the event ...

Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy Applied to Reservoir Recognition and Evolution on Marine Carbonatic Ramp—Macaé Group (Albian to Cenomanian) of Campos Basin

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
A classic oil producing interval of the Campos Basin—Macaé Group is revisited through seismic stratigraphic analysis, providing a stratigraphic framework, characteristic depositional and relative time positioning for several complex structural settings.

Tectono‐Sedimentary Evolution of the Neogene İnegöl Basin (NW Anatolia): Constraints on Transtensional Basin Development at the Junction of the Western Anatolian Extensional Province and the North Anatolian Fault Zone

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
The study outlines the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of the İnegöl Basin in north‐western Anatolia. Basin formation was controlled by interacting extensional and strike‐slip fault systems linked to uplift of the Uludağ Massif. Terrestrial sedimentation from the Miocene to Pleistocene is reconstructed using abundant fossil mammal assemblages that ...

Drainage Water Reuse Through a Baffled Constructed Wetland System: A Pilot Study in the Harran Plain, Türkiye

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The reuse of agricultural drainage water requires low‐cost pretreatment for sediments and salts. This study developed a pilot‐scale horizontal surface‐flow baffled constructed wetland for passive pretreatment of agricultural drainage water.

Quantifying user variability in the traditional X‐ray ice‐rafted‐debris counting technique

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The flux of icebergs is most commonly constrained in the palaeo‐record by manually counting gravel clasts in sediment core X‐ray images—a trusted method in Quaternary science and palaeoceanography for nearly 40 years. In this study, we explore the reproducibility (user consistency and between‐user variability) of the traditional clast‐counting
