Dominant Processes

Depositional controls on clastic sediments of the continental margins
 
These include:
  • Rate of sediment accumulation -  Higher rate of sedimentation favor accommodation fill.
  • Sea Level Change
  • Sea level fall leads to fill and spill over from the shelf to the slope.
  • Progradation is favored by less accommodation on the shelf
