Abstract
As slowly prograding, steep, sigmoidal clinoforms are strongly suggestive of sand-prone subaqueous deltas, the Sognefjord Formation and Bridport Sand are likely Jurassic examples of this clinoform type, and host hydrocarbon reservoirs. In contrast, the Campanian Blackhawk Formation is an outcrop example of delta-scale compound clinoforms with a muddy subaqueous component.
