摘要：

Seismic geomorphologic features in the MTC-rich sediment column within a GOM minibasin were illuminated through seismic attributes. A bottom-to-top sequential geomorphology study of these features helped us to build a sequence stratigraphic framework. We showed how to construct a relative sea-level curve from sequential seismic geomorphology and seismic sequence stratigraphic interpretation. This curve correlated well with the published eustatic cycles. In the absence of biostratigraphic data, the sequential seismic geomorphologic analysis from multi-attribute studies can provide a sequence stratigraphic framework for more detailed sand prediction. Combined with biostratigraphic information, such analysis may even reveal finer details not predicted by the regional sea-level curves. © 2010 Society of Exploration Geophysicists.
