Line 68: − The following figure shows paleogeography from approximately 2.5 Ma to 2 Ma (interval D). Again, shelfal net sand thicks and intraslope basin isopach thicks interpreted to be deepwater “Tan” complexes are the dominant depositional environments. Note the depocenter has shifted to offshore western Louisiana and Texas. The High Island-East Breaks study area occurs within the western part of this depocenter.+
