Shale transformations and physical properties—Implications for seismic expression of mobile shales

JI Soto, MR Hudec, NH Mondol, M Heidari - Earth-Science Reviews, 2021 - Elsevier
Seismic interpretation of mobile shales is challenging, mostly because of their unclear
seismic expression. Imaging of mobile shales is difficult because of their low seismic …

Lateral magma flow in mafic sill complexes

C Magee, JD Muirhead, A Karvelas… - …, 2016 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
The structure of upper crustal magma plumbing systems controls the distribution of

Geometry and controls on the development of igneous sill–related forced folds: A 2-D seismic reflection case study from offshore southern Australia

CAL Jackson, N Schofield, B Golenkov - Bulletin, 2013 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Emplacement of magma in the shallow subsurface can result in the development of dome-
