Time-thickness map from a Lower Cretaceous unit in the Mississippi Salt Basin (Thieling and Moody, 1997; Johnson et al., 2006). Regional sediment source is from the northwest. Numbers 1 to 5 in white areas denote locations of salt domes. Domes 1 and 2 acted as a salt-cored high blocking sedimentary input. A clockwise oriented sedimentary pathway developed around Dome 2. Contour interval is 50 ms. Map derived from seismic data courtesy of CGG. MI—Mississippi; LA—Louisiana.
