Bahamian Holocene and Pleistocene deposits provide key evidence to understand processes and patterns of carbonate shoals. New datasets of high-resolution satellite images, acoustic Doppler measurements, sub-bottom profiles, core and sediment samples elucidate factors in the deposition of a shoal and assess how facies and diagenesis control petrophysics of similar ancient deposits. Holocene morphology are linked to hydrodynamics. Seismic data image Holocene shoals and reveal how antecedent Pleistocene topography affected its morphology and evolution. Core analysis of a subsurface Pleistocene section compares facies architecture with the Holocene and examines facies-petrophysical relationships in oolitic reservoirs and compares relationships with ancient limestones. This book integrates both modern and ancient carbonate systems to offer a better understanding of the controls on shoal morphology, and petrophysics that are crucial to the oil industry. It is hoped that this book can be...
