Abstract

Fourteen seismic-reflection profiles of northeast Ramsar, SW Caspian Sea, were investigated to define SEISMIC FADES, depositional processes and potential STRATIGRAPHIC TRAPS below the Upper-Pliocene time-line reflector. Four SEISMIC FADES were defined: I) parallel layered fades, 2) chaotic fades, 3) mounded fades, and 4) protruding fades. The parallel-layered fades is the most dominant, its continuity increases basin ward. The chaotic facies mainly occur as shale diapires which were intruded into the overlying sediments. The deep-water deposits are the mounded and prograding fades which are related to deltaic processes and occur north of the study area. Various internal reflection patterns of the mounded fades indicate different processes were active during their formation. Potentia l STRATIGRAPHIC TRAPSmay be found in sediment mounds, buried channels, prograding clinoforms and debris-flow lobes, among which sediment mounds are more significant. The largest mound is 18.8 km wide and 480 m high.
