Contourite System Evolution

Contourite System Evolution is a geological process model that describes the temporal development and morphological transformation of contourite deposits under the influence of deep-water bottom currents, distinguishing it from other sedimentary system evolutions by its primary dependence on along-slope sediment transport and reworking mechanisms.
