High‐resolution bathymetry, seismic reflection, and piston core data from a submarine channel on the western Niger Delta slope demonstrate that thick, coarse‐grained, amalgamated sands in the channel …

Eustasy constitutes a key control on continental-shelf accommodation along with tectonism. The combined effect of these processes influences relative sea level, which is thought to regulate the locati…
Submarine-channel systems record basin-margin sediment dispersal and can host signi cant natural resources.We review the facies architecture (i.e., facies heterogeneity and stacking patterns) of outcr…
Changes in sediment supply and caliber during the last ∼ 130 ka have resulted in a complex architectural evolution of the Y channel system on the western Niger Delta slope. This evolution consists of …
Although numerous case studies exist to illustrate the large-scale stratigraphic architecture of salt-withdrawal minibasins, there is no clear understanding of how stratal patterns emerge as a functio…
