    Abstract

    In this special volume a series of papers are presented that concentrate on sedimentation patterns observed on the slopes and within the basins surrounding shallow-water carbonate depositional systems. Four papers discuss depositional patterns on the slope to basin transect of the Cainozoic sedimentary system of the Bahamas; four other papers examine gravity deposits of Jurassic and Cretaceous carbonate depositional systems.
