1 Shelf Sedimentation

2 Accommodation Space Influences:
Tectonic activity (uplift or subsidence) Sea-level (eustacy) Sediment supply

3 Accommodation Space Carlos Cremez. Courtesey of C. Cremez

4 Deposition, Accommodation, and Supply
Depositional Architectures as a function of accommodation volume and sediment supply Redrawn from Emery, D., Myers, K.J., 1996, sequence stratigraphy. Blackwell, Oxford, UK, 297 pp. – Redrawn Emery & Meyers 1996
