Confined Turbidite Systems / Замкнутые турбидитовые системы

The papers in this volume consider the general themes of flow confinement and topographic control on processes and sedimentary architecture in deep water clastic systems.
This publication grew out of an international workshop on Confined Turbidite Systems, held in Nice (France) in September 2001. Many of the papers presented at that meeting related to case studies of the Ores d'Annot turbidites, which are so spectacularly exposed in the region north of Nice. Hence we have also produced a companion volume in the same series (Geological Society Special Publication 221) specifically focusing on the Ores d'Annot.The editors would like to thank the following colleagues for reviewing papers in this volume: Greg Browne, Mary Carr, David Conybeare, Gianluca Cornamusini, Jeff Crabaugh, Bryan
Cronin, Brian Dade, Andrea Di Giulio, Trevor Elliott, Bill Galloway, Andy Gardiner, Peter Haughton, Richard Hiscott, Dave Hodgson, Richard Holmes, Jon Ineson, Juraj Janocko, Gilbert Kelling, Ben Kneller, Doug Masson, Stephen Morris, Kevin Pickering, Nick Satur, Erik Scott, Pete Sixsmith, Ru Smith, Ron Steel, Pete Tailing, Nigel Woodcock, Russell Wynn and Christoph Zink, plus two anonymous sedimentologists.
