Abstract
1001 MID-SHELF LOWSTAND AND TRANSGRESSIVE SYSTEMS TRACT DEPOSITS OF SOUTHEAST ASIA - EXAMPLES FROM OFFSHORE JAVA AND MALAYSIA 1 Lowstand and transgressive systems tract deposits on the northwest Java shelf are documented based on an integrated analysis of 3D seismic shalllow-penetration seismic data well-log and conventional core data. These data show that incised valley systems formed during sea-level lowstand extend in excess of 200-500 km inboard of the shelf margin. They range from 2-5 km wide and up to 40 m deep. These incised valleys seem to have formed during only the lowest of lowstand times during relatively short intervals.
