Very High Resolution 3D Seismic Imaging of a Complex Shelf Structure in the Adriatic Sea

Very High Resolution 3D seismic data acquired on the Adriatic shelf image the internal geometry of the late-Holocene mud wedge in a transitional zone between shore-parallel undulated features and small-scale mud relief elongated perpendicular to the bathymetry. The 3D seismic approach applied to Very High Resolution studies allowed to image the internal structure of these features possibly related to either sediment failure or transport by current and to enhance the comprehension of geological problems of key importance.
