Delta Stratigraphy

Delta Stratigraphy is a geological framework that characterizes the three-dimensional arrangement and temporal succession of sedimentary deposits within deltaic environments, distinguished by its focus on the hierarchical organization of facies, bedding geometry, and stratigraphic architecture resulting from the interplay of fluvial, marine, and gravitational processes.
