A three-dimensional unsteady numerical model is applied to simulate turbidity currents in deep submarine canyons located on the continental slope of the Niger Delta. In one of the few attempts to comp…
[1] In the present work, we use a three‐dimensional numerical model to simulate turbidity currents in a large‐scale submarine environment. The model solves the Reynolds Averaged Navier–Stokes equation…
The Pleistocene Fuji–Einstein system in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico consists of a shelf-edge delta that is directly linked to and coeval with two submarine channel–levee systems, Fuji and Einstein…
This submarine apron is an analog for the stratigraphic architecture of shallow ponded basins common to stepped, above-grade slopes, where late-stage bypass valleys and channels did not form. Depositi…
Channel-levee systems are frequently interpreted as having a long history of cut-and-fill by channel-shaped features of different scales. Results from a simple geometric model based on a centerline mi…
Field and simulation studies indicate that channel architecture and the presence of channel-base drapes (CBDs) can have a significant impact on oil recovery and represent key uncertainties in the unde…
