Stratigraphic evolution and drowning steps of a submerged isolated carbonate platform in the northern South China Sea

Drowned carbonate platforms on passive margins present a paradox, because their great growth potential exceeds the typical rates of passive margin subsidence and any relative sea-level rise driven by long-term processes in the geologic record. In this study, manned submersible observations, sampling...
