Incised valley

The Ba Lat estuary is part of the downstream stretch of the Red River Delta, the second-largest Delta in Vietnam and the 12th largest in the world. This study analyses GAT borehole sediments in the Ba Lat estuary area to assess environmental changes during the Late Pleistocene - Holocene period.

High-resolution marine seismic reflection studies on the eastern shelf of the Saros Gulf have revealed the presence of gascharged sediments across a narrow submarine valley incised by the Ganos Fault along the North Anatolian Fault system. Quaternary sediments, accumulated during glacial and interglacial periods through transgressional and progradational units, were controlled by glacio-eustatic sea-level fluctuations and tectonic deformation. The transgressional units made of upward-fining deposits created seals at their tops to form gas accumulation pockets.

A compilation of depositional facies and 14C ages from the two new cores (DT2, and DT4 cores) considerably contribute to clarify the Holocene evolution of the paleo Mekong River (MR) incised valley, Mekong River Delta (MRD). The longitudial section documents the geometric features indicating the different gradients along the paleo-Mekong incised valley from the Cambodian lowerlands through delta plain up to the shallow offshore of the MRD.

This sedimentological and sequence-stratigraphic study focuses on the late Miocene deposits in one of the largest periMediterranean basins of southern Turkey, the Adana Basin, which formed as a Tauride foreland depression accumulating molasse deposits. The Tortonian–Messinian shallow-marine Handere Formation, previously interpreted as a regressive succession, appears to have recorded several relative sea-level changes.

The Turasha River like the Malewa is a permanent stream. It drains the north Kinangop plateau and the mountain range to the east of it. It follows a u-shaped course, flowing northwards towards Kinangop plateau collecting tributaries from the forested massif of Kipipiri, before curving right round to join the southward flowing Malewa. Like the Malewa it has excavated a deep- walled cut several hundred feet deep in the flat-topped tuff plateau, and its tributaries are similarly incised.
