This technique was initially employed for petroleum exploration and subsequently evolved into sequence stratigraphy by academic institutes.
This revolutionary interpretation has been substantiated by Vail’s associated industrial drilling results and extensive multichannel seismic data.
Furthermore, the most indisputable evidence comes from the progradational dipping reflection pattern associated with the advancing delta deposition in shallow marine environments.
[4] Sequence boundaries are defined as an erosional unconformity recognized on the seismic profile as a reflection surface with reflection termination features such as truncation below and onlap above the surface, The sequence boundary, therefore, represents a marine regression event, during which continental shelf is partially exposed to subaerial erosion processes.
[5] Within a systems tract, each seismic facies is mapped based on reflection geometry, continuity, amplitude, frequency, and interval velocity.
