Sand distribution along shelf-edge deltaic systems : a case study from eastern offshore Trinidad
The study area is situated along the obliquely converging boundary of the Caribbean and South American plates offshore eastern offshore Trinidad. Major structural elements in the shelf break and deep-water slope regions include normal and counter-normal faults to the south and large transpressional...
