A, B, C are three high-resolution seismic profiles from one shallow intraslope minibasin, northern deep Gulf of Mexico. (A) Proximal and (B) medial profiles cross the upfan channelized systems. (C) A distal profile crosses the sheet deposits. Note that lobes A and B have a slightly mounded appearance among the laterally continuous, sheetlike reflections. The deposits are as large as 50 ms in two-way traveltime. These have laterally continuous reflections that lapout against the side of basins. (D) Seismic profile of a leveed channel complex from the western Gulf of Mexico. A,B,C, after Beauboeuf et al. (2003).
