Both turbidites  and tempestites are expected to pinch out seawards,  but their actual thinning rates and pinchout  geometries are little-known and unpredictable. In  the present pilot study, more than 3750 closely- spaced measurements of the lateral thickness changes  in 146 turbidite and tempestite beds have been  collected over lateral outcrop distances of up to  640 m. The datasets show that both turbidites and  tempestites have a log-normal thickness frequency  distribution. Assuming the bed segments measured in  outcrop sections represent downflow-thinning  segments of unconfined turbidites and tempestites,  their thinning rates can be stacked together  according to the local bed-thickness ranges to  represent the pinchout geometry of a whole single  bed. The range-related trend equations allow the  pinchout distance of every bed in a turbiditic or  tempesitic succession encountered in a well to be  predicted and the net spatial pinch-out of a given  bed succession to be modelled.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783843380317\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003ea new statistical approach to the problem of lateral bed thinning based on outcrop measurements\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783843380317","offer_id":39470004568157,"sku":"9783843380317","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/f4af91f0-6148-4848-b165-7a779557c751.jpg?v=1757825144","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/pinchout-geometry-of-sheet-like-sandstone-beds-von-michal-janocko","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
