4.1.2. Common Features

All models in the set correspond to a 33 km long section and a succession of 40 gradating sedimentary layers, distributed in stratigraphic sequences of transgressive, highstand, lowstand, and turbiditic system tracks (Figure 1). The sedimentation is globally prograding and most layers present a clinoform morphology, with a slope dipping up to 10◦. This angle refers to the highest value measured in clastic deposits on passive margins around the world [17]. Maximum sediment pile thickness is 3 km. Under the sediments, 2 km of a sti ff geo-material are previously set up to create a hard basis to the model.
