The clinoform facies is onlapped by parallel, moderate-amplitude, onlapping reflections of the onlap-fill facies, which are subsequently downlapped onto by the next overlying prograding clinoform. In a broader sense, the drape facies below these clinoforms and the ''Glob N'' datum represent basinal deposits; the clinoform and onlapping-fill facies represent slope deposits; and the overlying tabular facies above the clinoforms and the ''Glob M'' datum represent shelf deposits—all part of a basin-filling succession.

Associated foraminiferal [[Fossil assemblage|biofacies]] shown in [[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-27.png|Figure 2]] and [[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-29.png|Figure 3]] support this analysis. The ''Glob alt'' sequence is the fourth clinoform from the right, the fourth-most basinward of five oblique clinoforms that toplap along a common horizon. Superjacent clinoforms show progressively more topset deposition forming sigmoidal clinoforms, suggesting relative rise of sea level (with consistent widespread increase in accommodation space). Observations of seismic facies from a single phase of deposition, such as lowstand or highstand, are recorded on a map and contoured to convey the distribution of each seismic facies ([[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-37.png|Figures 4]] and [[:file:sedimentary-basin-analysis_fig4-38.png|5]]).
