RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE MUD ORGANIC MATTER CONTENT AND THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF DIAPIRIC DOMES USING ANALOG MODELS

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE MUD ORGANIC MATTER CONTENT AND THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF DIAPIRIC DOMES USING ANALOG MODELS

Mud diapirs are sedimentary structures produced by mud intrusion through a host rock. In this study, analog models of mud diapirism showed that gas generated from decomposition of organic matter contained in diapiric mud plays a fundamental role in the generation of these structures. This study is a...
