Shallow time slices from deep 3-D time slices: a new world discovered? Bob F. Paap (TNO Built Environment and Geosciences – Geological Survey of the Netherlands) Jan H. Brouwer (TNO Built Environment and Geosciences – Geological Survey of the Netherlands) and Sytze van Heteren (TNO Built Environment and Geosciences – Geological Survey of the Netherlands) SUMMARY____________________________________________________________ In recent years shallow time slices of marine 3D-seismics acquired for petroleum-exploration purposes have been used to reconstruct paleolandscapes that are presently buried and submerged. These shallow time slices provide information on the distribution of various lithological units that are present in the upper
