NW SOUTH CHINA SEA
SILICICLASTIC CLINOFORMS
We are at the shelf-margin of the northwestern South China Sea margin, where we find well-developed clino-
forms of late Miocene–Quaternary age.
You are given two parallel 2D sesimic reflection profiles. Use these and answer the following questions.
How many growth sycles do you identify since 10.5Ma?
What is the shelf edge trajectory?
How many parasequences?
What is your sea level curve prediction?
