Figure 5
(A, D) Distribution of facies-association belts at the top of fluvial-dominated deltaic deposits (parasequence 1.7) in models of stacked delta-lobe parasequences, and associated model cross-sections illustrating facies architecture along (B, E) regional depositional dip and (C, F) regional depositional strike. Two models are shown, either (A–C) lacking or (D–F) containing channelized fluvial sandbodies that truncate the underlying delta-lobe parasequences. Facies associations are colored according to the key in Figure 3.
