Seismic Characteristics and Development Patterns of Miocene Carbonate Platform in the Beikang Basin, Southern South China Sea

The Beikang Basin is located in the southern part of the South China Sea (SCS), which is one of most tectonically complex sea areas. It is a deepwater sedimentary basin that was mainly deposited during the Cenozoic era. Owing to data restrictions, the research on carbonate platforms of this area is still in its infancy. High‐resolution seismic data are analyzed to identify the Miocene carbonate platforms and reconstruct the architecture and...
