Description
- Deep-water heterogeneity research focus -Framework for exploring deep-water heterogeneity at large (seismic) scale: seafloor and shallow subsurface Taranaki Basin
- Up- to down-dip changes in channel networks
- Interaction of channels with mass-transport deposits (i.e., submarine landslides) -
- Focus on sand-prone architectural elements- channel and lobe deposits
- Small (outcrop) to large (seismic) scale
- Architectural element geometries
- Stacking patterns and evolution
