The sand overloads the wet mud, and you get all sorts of foundering, resulting in extension in one spot and (presumably) contraction farther down in the delta toes. So the features occur (predictably) within discrete stratigraphic and paleoenvironmental locations.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01969672173684293621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8712540294522210240.post-13239660607679296352011-08-07T17:13:13.904-07:002011-08-07T17:13:13.904-07:00Are these extensional features deformation bands? ...Are these extensional features deformation bands?
