Outcrop data sheets
Below you can find the individual outcrops and photos that belong to them. You can download the files separately, or you can download all the files + photos (excluding location maps) as a .zip file here. The Excel data files consist of 6 sheets - raw data with facies descriptions + 5 sheets showing different regression curves for each bed. In files that contain a lot of data, charts for some beds are missing because Excel cannot store so many charts in one file. However, it is only in one or two files. Non-linear outcrops, where azimuth varied a lot, were divided into several segments with similar strike. The distance between these segments was calculated with the help of trigonometric functions as explained at the bottom of this page.

Location maps:
- (the La Verna outcrop in Italy (deltaic foresets) is not included in the location map)
- I wasn't sure about the formation in Boyabat - is it Cemalettin?
Outcrops that varied in strike too much were divided into several segments with similar azimuth. Distance between two segments with similar strike was taken as the distance between two normals to the transport direction. In this case we assume the turbidite is a cuboid pinching out to one side. Distance between two segments oblique to the transport direction was calculated as the distance between two average normals calculated from the real normals of the individual segments (not shown in the figure).
It probably sounds confusing so here is a short example:
In the figure 1 below you can see our outcrop and the cuboidal turbidite pinching out to one direction.
To calculate the distance between segments 130 and 110 we draw two normals to the transport direction, which is in this case 120°.
In figure 2 and 3 you can see the two normals (30°) and the distance d between them. This distance was calculated by trigonometric functions, although it could also be calculated in a some kind of software.
This is the way I thought it was best to calculate the distance - I don't know, there might be some other ways too.
