Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomy, geometry and sequence stratigraphy of basin floor to slope turbidite systems, Tanqua Karoo, South Africa

TL;DR: The Tanqua area of the Karoo basin, South Africa, contains five Permian deep-water turbidite fan systems, almost completely exposed over some 640 km2 as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anatomy and Stratigraphic Development of a Basin Floor Turbidite System in the Laingsburg Formation, Main Karoo Basin, South Africa

TL;DR: In this article, the lowermost 300 m thick Fan A-F turbidite system was studied and the facies associations include channel fills and correlative lateral overbank deposits of thin sheet-like and rippled sandstones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Partial Ponding of Turbidite Systems in a Basin with Subtle Growth-Fold Topography: Laingsburg-Karoo, South Africa

TL;DR: The Laingsburg Formation of the South African Karoo foreland basin provides an excellent opportunity to study the interplay between deep-water sedimentation and syndepositional fold growth as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upward‐thickening patterns and lateral continuity of Permian sand‐rich turbidite channel fills, Laingsburg Karoo, South Africa

TL;DR: In this paper, extensive exposures of the Permian Laingsburg Formation, Karoo basin, South Africa, have enabled a detailed reconstruction of the base of slope stratigraphy and palaeoenvironments in a deepwater system characterized by a very narrow grain-size range (fine sandstone).
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence stratigraphic interpretation of turbiditic strata: An example from Jurassic strata of the Neuquén basin, Argentina

TL;DR: In the Neuquen basin of Argentina, two second-order sequences formed in response to relative changes of sea level during the Early to Middle Jurassic as discussed by the authors, and a sequence boundary generated by tectonic inversion and basin desiccation temporally separates the two secondorder sequences, suggesting that development of the sequence boundary represented a significant basin reorganization event.
