Modern carbonate sedimentary facies on the outer shelf and slope around New Caledonia

We investigated surface carbonate sediments at 33 sites on the outer shelf and slope around New Caledonia (163°–167°E, 20°–23°S), at water depths of 75–720 m. Four carbonate sedimentary facies are recognized on the basis of sediment size fractions and predominant constituents: Facies 1, encrusted gr...
