Explore a 56-minute lecture on modeling nearshore stratigraphic response to structural deformation, presented by Dr. Xuesong Ding from the Bureau of Economic Geology at the University of Texas at Austin. Delve into the limitations of traditional sequence stratigraphic models and discover how coupled landscape evolution-stratigraphic models can better account for sediment supply and surface process interactions. Examine the effects of tilting on sediment-routing systems, including river capture, sediment distribution, and stratigraphic patterns on both subsided and uplifted sides. Learn about the surprising finding of non-erosive depositional hiatuses on uplifted surfaces and their potential as indicators of tectonic uplift events. Gain insights into the complex interplay between structural deformation, sediment supply, and stratigraphic evolution in nearshore environments.
