Reconstruction of topography and related depositional systems during active thrusting
Reftable reconstruction of former topography in deformed regions is commonly difficult, due to degradation of former erosional and depositional surfaces. In contrast o most modem landscapes, however, ancient localities can sometimes provide clearer insights on subsurface geometries of deposition, deformation, and erosion and on theft variations through time. In some exceptional circumstances, a...
متن کاملInversion of Gravity Data by Constrained Nonlinear Optimization based on nonlinear Programming Techniques for Mapping Bedrock Topography
A constrained nonlinear optimization method based on nonlinear programming techniques has been applied to map geometry of bedrock of sedimentary basins by inversion of gravity anomaly data. In the inversion, the applying model is a 2-D model that is composed of a set of juxtaposed prisms whose lower depths have been considered as unknown model parameters. The applied inversion method is a nonli...
متن کاملDepositional Turbidity Currents in Diapiric Minibasins on the Continental Slope: Formulation and Theory
The northern continental slope of the Gulf of Mexico is riddled with numerous subsiding diapiric minibasins bounded by ridges, many but not all of which are connected by channels created by turbidity currents. The region is economically relevant in that many of these diapiric minibasins constitute focal points for the deposition of sand. Some of these sandy deposits in turn serve as excellent r...

متن کاملSlope Distributions, Threshold Hillslopes, and Steady-state Topography
Digital elevation models of two “steady-state” mountain ranges, the Olympic Mountains (OM) and Oregon Coast Range (OCR), are used to examine relationships between slope distributions, the development of threshold hillslopes, and steady-state topography. Plots of drainage area versus slope for these mountain ranges exhibit substantial scatter that complicates comparison of range form to analytic...
