Typically, progressive healing of the complicated relief generated by the submarine landslide occurs prior to progradation of sedimentary systems. However, subsurface and seabed examples show that submarine channels can incise directly into submarine landslides. Here, the evolution of a unique exhumed example of two adjacent, and partially contemporaneous, submarine channel-fills is documented. The channels show deep incision (&gt;75 m), and steep lateral margins (up to 70°), cut into a &gt;200 m thick submarine landslide. The stepped basal erosion surface, and multiple terrace surfaces, are mantled by clasts (gravels to cobbles) reflecting periods of bedload-derived sedimentation, punctuated by phases of downcutting and sediment bypass. The formation of multiple terrace surfaces in a low aspect ratio confinement is consistent with the episodic migration of knickpoints during entrenchment on the dip slope of the underlying submarine landslide. Overlying sandstone-rich channel-fills mark a change to aggradation. Laterally stacked channel bodies coincide with steps in the original large-scale erosion surface, recording widening of the conduit; this is followed by tabular, highly aggradational fill. The upper fill, above a younger erosional surface, shows an abrupt change to partially confined tabular sandstones with normally graded caps, interpreted as lobe fringe deposits, which formed due to down-dip confinement, followed by prograding lobe deposits. Overlying this, an up-dip avulsion induced lobe switching and back-stepping, and subsequent failure of a sandstone body up-dip led to emplacement of a sandstone-rich submarine landslide within the conduit. Collectively, this outcrop represents episodic knickpoint-generated incision, and later infill, of a slope adjusting to equilibrium. The depositional signature of knickpoints is very different from existing models, but is probably reflective of other highly erosional settings undergoing large-scale slope adjustment.</p>","PeriodicalId":54144,"journal":{"name":"Depositional Record","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/dep2.178","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44320662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A lower McMurray lacustrine carbonate deposit is characterised by a metre-thick bed fabric of Mn-rich siderite micro-spherulites.

Subsequent salt dissolution events and up-section migrations of Devonian brine during deposition of the middle and upper McMurray intervals resulted in similar carbonate-saturated but sulphate-poor chemistry.

The new hindered settling equation enables predictions of settling velocity for a wide range of particle sizes and densities, and liquid densities and viscosities, but with a focus on sediment particles in water.

Yet, standard data treatment and resulting interpretations present limitations related to the inherent complexities of natural geological materials (e.g. compositional variety, structural ordering), and are often time consuming and focussed on a very detailed inspection. Several alternatives were evaluated in terms of advantages and disadvantages to the main goal of generating a user-friendly, fast and intuitive way of processing a large volume of X-ray diffraction data. The potential of using raw X-ray diffraction data to interpret mineralogical diversity and relative phase abundances along sedimentary successions is explored here. A Python based program was tailored to assist in raw data organisation. After this automated step, a 3D surface computation renders the final result within minutes. This single-image representation can also be integrated with complementary information (sedimentary logs or other features of interest) for contrast and/or comparison in multi-proxy studies. The proposed approach was tested on a set of 81 bulk and clay-fraction diffractograms (intensity in counts per second—cps and respective angle—º2Ɵ) obtained from a Cenomanian mixed carbonate–siliciclastic stratigraphic succession, here explored by combining mineralogical (XY) and stratigraphic/geological information (Z). The main goal is to bypass preliminary data treatment, avoid time-consuming interpretation and unintended, but common, user-induced bias. Advantages of 3D modelling include fast processing and single-image solutions for large volumes of XRD data, combining mineralogical and stratigraphic information. This representation adds value by incorporating field (stratigraphic/sedimentological) information that complements and contextualises obtained mineralogical data. Limitations of using raw intensity data were evaluated by comparison with the results obtained via other standard data interpretation methods (e.g. semi-quantitative estimation).

Field and petrographic evidence (e.g. up to 20 cm large imbricated clasts, hummocky bedding, Bouma-type graded sequences) indicate that the high-energy deposit represents a bi-directional succession of two debrite–turbidite couplets. This succession can best be explained by deposition related to passage and rebound of tsunami waves. Sedimentary processes were possibly influenced by highly dense silica-rich seawater. The tsunami was probably triggered by local fault-induced seismic activity since the Dresser Formation was deposited in a volcanic caldera basin that experienced syndepositional extensional growth faulting. However, alternative triggers (meteorite impact, volcanic eruption) or a combination thereof cannot be excluded. The results of this work indicate a subaquatic habitat that was subject to tsunami-induced high-energy disturbance.

Despite remarkable progress driven by exploratory drilling, outcrop analogue studies and experimental work, the scientific theories defining the burial sub-domains are inconsistently presented in the literature. This paper reviews the concepts, processes and products that characterise the burial realm from the viewpoint of the carbonate geoscientist. Typical features of carbonate burial (fluid types, porosity evolution, diagenetic fabrics, patterns in isotope geochemistry) in epicontinental and marine basins are presented and discussed. A step towards an improved conceptual delimitation and a subdivision of the carbonate burial realm is taken, and an intuitive terminology is proposed. The very shallow limit of the burial realm is placed within the upper sediment column (redox boundary; centimetres to tens of metres). In the shallow (marine) burial domain (down to depths of many hundreds of metres), carbonate dissolution and reprecipitation, sediment dewatering and grain reorganisation take place. Interstitial waters are mainly marine (and subordinate meteoric) in origin and the system is fluid-dominated. Under ongoing burial, physical and chemical compaction reduces pore space. At burial depths of <i>ca</i> 750 m, initial sediment porosities (40–80%) are reduced to about 30%. The intermediate burial domain (hundreds of metres to about 2 km; <i>T</i> &lt; 100°C) is characterised by the transition from fluid-buffered to rock-buffered diagenesis. In the deep-burial domain (<i>ca</i> 2–12 km; <i>T</i> &gt; 100°C), marine formation fluids are increasingly modified by rock–fluid interaction and replaced by saline brines. The transition from the deep burial to the very low-grade metamorphic domain is placed at depths of 12–15 km (<i>T</i> &gt; 250°C).

This study has investigated the chemostratigraphy of the Middle–Late Cambrian Port au Port Group, Newfoundland, including the early marine cements. Here, the marine cements contain increasing concentrations of strontium towards the peak carbon isotope excursion (up to 5500 ppm at the peak excursion) before dropping off post-peak excursion, consistent with the original cements having been aragonitic. This trend is accompanied by relict oomouldic porosity, again suggesting an aragonitic precursor.

Extensive research has documented the bed-scale architecture of high sand-to-mud ratio, proximal and axial environments, which can have bed thicknesses of several metres; however, less well-understood are thin-bedded turbidites, which are typically lower N:G and deposited in more distal environments. Conceptual models assume that lobe-fringe-to-basin plain environments consist of tabular, sheet-like beds that extend out continuously and predictably over long distances—up to several kilometres. Extensive lateral continuity, however, is not necessarily reflected in ancient outcrop analogues. This study seeks to apply a quantitative approach to the characterisation of thin-bedded turbidites to assess the impact of multi-scale heterogeneity on reservoir predictability. The sea-cliff outcrop exposures of the Upper Cretaceous Point Loma Formation in San Diego, California, exhibit a wide range of bed thicknesses and stratigraphic architecture, which have been used to interpret an off-axis-to-fringe depositional environment. The study area spans 700 m of laterally continuous outcrop, across which 10 correlated stratigraphic sections are used to quantify changes in metrics such as bed thickness, N:G, lithofacies proportions, etc. Results of this study demonstrate that thin sand beds experience both lateral facies changes and rapid thickness changes more frequently than conceptual models would predict. A single measure of lateral heterogeneity does not reflect the true architecture of sandstone beds, and significant information is lost when beds are correlated over ten to hundreds of metres. Sands are commonly deposited in irregular, ‘finger-like’, planform geometries, which compounds at the lobe element scale and influences lateral lithofacies predictability.

Dust of anthropogenic origin in the region can come from active limestone and dolostone quarries, surface mining of siliciclastics, and agriculture on silicate-rich soils.
