Linking the High-Resolution Architecture of Modern and Ancient Wave-Dominated Deltas : Processes, Products and Forcing Factors

Many thoughts and concepts used in this paper were initially developed as a result of work conducted with funding provided to the WAVE Consortium at the Australian School of Petroleum, University of Adelaide (RBA, BKV and JB). The consortium sponsors (Apache, BAPETCO, BHPBP, BG, BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Nexen, OMV, Shell, Statoil, Todd Energy, and Woodside Energy) are thus thanked for making this work possible. We are indebted to journal reviewers Cornel Olariu and Howard Feldman, and to Associate Editor Janok Bhattacharya for numerous comments and suggestions that improved the clarity of the manuscript.Peer reviewedPostprin
