Fig. 9. Seismic line across the Central Graben, illustrating the Cenozoic sequences. Note the major input of Oligocene
CSS-3 and CSS-4 sequences in the Norwegian-Danish Basin, sourced from the northeast, and the major sediment input in
Miocene time, particularily sequence CSS-7, in the Central Graben, also sourced from the northeast. Also, note the Pliocene
CSS-8 and early Pleistocene CSS-9 sequences, prograding towards the southwest. Late Pleistocene sequence CSS-10 is
sub-parallel with the seabed.
