Block diagram of a channel-levee system illustrating the key subenvironments. Modified from Roberts and Compani (1996). Also shown is an RMS amplitude extraction map (20-ms gated window) of a channel-levee system with a prominent Miocene-age crevasse splay, offshore Angola. This crevasse is fan shaped and resulted from an avulsion in the channel. The seismic profile shows the interval from which the attribute was extracted.
