Adjective modifier

• sedimentary: This project will involve detailled field studies of the sedimentary composition, palaeocurrent analysis, stratigraphic breaks, unconformities, and sedimentary facies.

• Acheulian: These advanced features and tool-types are markedly absent in the Siwalik Acheulian facies, hence hinting at its own older antiquity.

• seismic: This is part of a regional study of seismic facies, geotechnical ( particularly void index ) profiles and depositional processes.

• marine: Examination of the key architectural elements provides an improved understanding of shallow marine facies and facies architecture within these basins.

• glauconitic: Within the Zone 6 glauconitic facies of the platform there is evidence for at least two periods of non-deposition.

• fluvial: The fluvial facies dominates the basal sediment portion that is overlain by an aeolian interval.

Modifies a noun

• distribution: Maps of facies distributions in each of the zones.

• variation: Facies variation was also studied in Late Cretaceous strata.

• association: Each depositional facies association is now believed to be strictly related to a distinct climatic phase.

• analysis: The macro level application will involve structure description and facies analysis and inter-relationship of sedimentary units in time and space.

• change: Both the marked variations in thickness of the Units and the facies changes within the Units suggest some structural control of deposition.

• architecture: These zones and mappable from seismic but their internal facies architecture is complex.
