Fluvial-style migration controls autogenic aggradation in submarine channels: Joshua Channel, eastern Gulf of Mexico

There has been debate over the processes acting on deep-water channels, with comparisons made to the evolution of meandering fluvial systems. We characterized a three-dimensional seismic-reflection da…

Stratigraphy in space and time: A reproducible approach to analysis and visualization

Time-elevation plots and chronostratigraphic diagrams are valuable for understanding and analyzing stratigraphy when time-elevation data, or some approximation of them, are available, for example in f…

Automated multi-well stratigraphic correlation and model building using relative geologic time

Stratigraphic correlation of geophysical well logs is one of the most importantand most time-consuming—tasks that applied geoscientists perform on a daily basis. Using the dynamic time warping (DTW) a…

Channel trajectories control deep-water stratigraphic architecture

Interpretation of deep-water channel deposits is challenging because the spatial arrangement of their constituent lithologies is highly variable. This variability is often thought to be a signature of…
