Geological characterization of sand-prone subaqueous delta systems : a case study of the Upper Jurassic Sognefjord Formation (Troll Field, Northern North Sea, offshore Norway) and global examples

Core sedimentology, stratigraphic architecture and 3D seismic geomorphology are integrated in order to: (a) demonstrate the criteria for recognition of coarse-grained subaqueous deltas in the stratigraphic record; (b) compare them with modern examples; (c) develop a new method to extract progradatio...
