Comparisons of depositional facies from experimental deposits with natural deposits justify the use of this experimental dataset for deposit volume evaluation (Graettinger et al. 2015a,b; Valentine et al. 2015b).
Gustavson, T. C. & Winkler, D. A. Depositional facies of the Miocene-Pliocene Ogallala FormaTexas northwestern Texandand eastern.
(a) The main lithostratigraphic units on Anticosti Island, including the Laframboise Member, are shown with their representative depositional facies and related δ13C curve.
Such local factors are detrital composition, sedimentary structures and reservoir architecture, inherent to depositional facies.
Four lithofacies associations are interpreted to represent four different depositional facies from shelf margin to abyssal environments.
Note that the magnitude and occurrences of such 13C enrichments depends on localized settings (for example, epeiric versus open ocean aquafacies22,44) and is therefore related to depositional facies and not straightforwardly to a global signal.
Results of this study reveal that there is a close relationship between the depositional facies and diagenetic processes in the Dalan Kangan sequences.
This study investigates different scales of reservoir heterogeneities from basin to micro scale and discusses the impact of depositional facies and diagenesis on reservoir quality.
Sediment petrography together with descriptions of depositional facies and architectural elements shows four depositional units related to fluvial and standing water environments.
(3) Although 79 MTD types exist in the geological and engineering literature, only slides, slumps, and debrites are viable depositional facies for interpreting ancient stratigraphic records.
Here we detail the depositional facies and accretionary history of an inshore, turbid-zone coral reef complex, Paluma Shoals, on the central Great Barrier Reef Shelf of Australia.
