Assessing first-order BQART estimates for ancient source-to- sink mass budget calculations
Nyberg, Björn Johan Emil Burr; Helland-Hansen, William Shedd; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Tillmans, Fabian; Sandbakken, Pål (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Constraining the timing and volume of sediment dispersal in an ancient sedimentary system is vital to understand a basin's infill history. One preferred method for a first-order approximation of ancient sediment load ... -
Deep-water syn-rift stratigraphy as archives of Early-Mid Pleistocene palaeoenvironmental signals and controls on sediment delivery
Cullen, Tim; Collier, Richard E.L.I.; Hodgson, David M.; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Kouli, Katerina; Maffione, Marco; Trygvason Eliassen, Gauti (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The timing and character of coarse siliciclastic sediment delivered to deep-water environments in active rift basins is governed by the complicated interactions of tectonics, climate, eustasy, hinterland geology, and shelf ... -
The evolution of catchment-depositional system relationships on the dip slopes of intra-rift basement highs: an example from the Frøya High, Mid-Norwegian Rifted Margin
Henstra, Gijs Allard; Cullen, Tim; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Munoz Barrera, Jhon Meyer; Muravchik, Martin; Rotevatn, Atle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Basement highs form one of many potential sediment source areas during the evolution of continental rifts and rifted margins and add to the topographic complexity typical of active rifts. Footwall basement highs acting as ... -
How is a turbidite actually deposited?
Ge, Zhiyuan; Nemec, Wojciech; Vellinga, Age; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The deposition of a classic turbidite by a surge-type turbidity current, as envisaged by conceptual models, is widely considered a discrete event of continuous sediment accumulation at a falling rate by the gradually waning ... -
The interactions of volcanism and clastic sedimentation in rift basins: Insights from the Palaeogene-Neogene Shaleitian uplift and surrounding sub-basins, Bohai Bay Basin, China
Chen, Hehe; Zhu, Xiaomin; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Wood, Lesli J.; Liu, Qianghu; Li, Shunli; Shi, Ruisheng; Li, Huiyong (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Although volcanism is an important process in the evolution of rift basins, current tectono-sedimentary models largely neglect its impact on sediment supply, transport pathways, and depositional systems. In this paper, we ... -
Sediment flux variation as a record of climate change in the Late Quaternary deep-water active Corinth Rift, Greece
Mohamed, Mohamed; Ll Collier, Richard E.; Hodgson, David; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Shillington, Donna J.; Muravchik, Martin; Sakellariou, Dimitris (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The value of deep-water sedimentary successions as reliable records of environmental change has been questioned due to their long response times and sediment pathways leading to complex responses to climatic change and ... -
Stratigraphic and paleoceanographic alternations within a Mediterranean semi-enclosed, syn-rift basin during Marine Isotope Stage 5: The Gulf of Corinth, Greece
Sergiou, Spyros; Geraga, Maria; Pechlivanidou, Sofia; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Ninnemann, Ulysses Silas; Meckler, Anna Nele; Modestou, Sevasti Eleni; Angelopoulou, Dimitra; Antoniou, Dimitria; Diz, Paula; McNeill, Lisa; Shillington, Donna J.; Papatheodorou, George (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)The Gulf of Corinth represents an ideal setting for studying the impact of sea level changes and regional climate on a semi-enclosed, syn-rift basin. Here we investigate the stratigraphic and paleoceanographic variability ... -
Supradetachment basins in necking domains of rifted margins: Insights from the Norwegian Sea
Munoz Barrera, Jhon Meyer; Rotevatn, Atle; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Henstra, Gijs Allard; Berg Kristensen, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Supradetachment basins at passive rifted margins are a key witness of major-continental extension, and they may preserve a record from which the amount and rates of extension and metamorphic core complex exhumation may be ... -
Syn-rift sediment gravity flow deposition on a Late Jurassic fault-terraced slope, northern North Sea
Tillmans, Fabian; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Jackson, Christopher AL; Rotevatn, Atle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Structurally controlled bathymetry in rifts has a significant influence on sediment routing pathways and depositional architecture of sediment gravity flow deposits. In contrast to rift segments characterized by crustal-scale ... -
Tectono-Stratigraphic Evolution of Salt-Influenced Normal Fault Systems: An Example From The Coffee-Soil Fault, Danish North Sea
Duffy, Oliver B.; Gawthorpe, Robert Leslie; Docherty, Matthew (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We explore how the relationships between fault activity, salt movement and sediment loading affect the stratal geometry of the hanging wall throughout the evolution of a salt-influenced normal fault system. We examine a ... -
