Channels in positive landforms represent deltaic features linked to sequence boundaries, fostering thick sand bodies.
Contrarily, channels in negative landforms reveal estuarine characteristics, forming narrower, vertically stacked sand bodies.
Utilizing 3D seismic data with well correlations, the study integrates geomorphology for improved understanding of reservoir characteristics.
The findings may guide future exploration efforts in deltaic geological settings similar to the Pearl River Mouth Basin.
