Turbidites, Topography and Tectonics: Evolution of Submarine Channel-lobe Systems in the Salt-influenced Kwanza Basin, offshore Angola

We use high quality 3D seismic to document and analysize the evolution of a turbidite system and its interaction with salt-related structures. We show that the growth and decay of salt-related structures result in variations in seafloor topography which ultimately control the routes and depositions of the turbidite systems.

Spatial and temporal variations in minibasin geometry and evolution in salt tectonic provinces: Lower Congo Basin, offshore Angola

We use high quality 3D seismic to document the evolution of a network of minibasins and their associated salt-related structures. We show that minibasin initiation and subsequent evolution can be controlled by different mechanisms and therefore categorising minibasins into simple domain-related types is problematic.

Impact of normal faulting and pre‐rift salt tectonics on the structural style of salt‐influenced rifts: the Late Jurassic Norwegian Central Graben, North Sea

We use high quality 3D seismic dataset to demonstarte the interaction between large-scale rift architecture (rift segment vs rift accommodation zone) and complex pre-rift salt-related structures.

Salt-structural styles and kinematic evolution of the Jequitinhonha deepwater fold belt, central Brazil passive margin

We use seismic data to study the structural style and kinematic evolution of the Jequitinhonha Basin, Brazil.
