Sequence Stratigraphic Analysis of Early and Middle Miocene ...
To date, no detailed investigation has examined the lateral variability of the early
Miocene Mid Atlantic shelf progradation. Onshore detailed coring, specifically
Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) legs 150X and 174AX, offers the best information
of ...

Deep-water Sedimentation in the Alpine Basin of SE France: ...
The sediment preservation rate has changed trough time, from moderate (first
progradation/ aggradation), to low (by-pass, pure progradation), to high (second
progradation/aggradation) and to extremely low to non-existent (condensation to
...

Sedimentary Responses to Forced Regressions
Because progradation occurs as a depositional continuum from highstand to
lowstand conditions, sequence boundaries are difficult to recognize and correlate
on a regional scale. In fact, continued sea-level fall produces several downshift ...

Geomorphology: Themes and Trends
(1981), in a study of beach barrier progradation in New South Wales, suggest two
phases subsequent to sea level stabilisation (which here took place prior to 6000
years BP). Up to 4000 BP progradation was rapid, largely from sand sources ...

Landscapes and Societies: Selected Cases
ancient cities (Frost 1963; Flemming 1971) to a more modern paradigm of rapid
sediment accretion driving coastal progradation and the landlocking of ancient
coastal cities and their infrastructures (such as harbors). In the case of rapid ...

Geology and Geomorphology of Holocene Coastal Barriers of Brazil
Textural and depth similarities between the sedimentary sequences in the sand
pit and on the present shoreface point to the maintenance of the profile during
barrier progradation. The isochrones plotted in Fig. 5.33 point to very little coastal

The Sedimentary Record of Sea-Level Change
4.2.1 Parasequence sets, progradation, aggradation and retrogradation Now let
us consider the patterns developed when a series of parasequences are
superimposed on different longer-term trends in the delicate balance between
sediment ...

areas without the regional understanding of the nature of the bounding surfaces

Geological Survey of Canada, Current Research (Online) no. ...
By 5 ka, a deep embayment, acting as a depositional sink, was formed when Tow
Hill joined the mainland which, in turn, initiated rapid progradation of North
Beach. Since about 2.7 ka, rapid and possibly accelerating rates of beach ridge
