Seismic stratigraphy
Hence, onlap, down lap and top lap and other depositional features observed on surface outcrops have been demonstrated on seismic profiles. The maximum sea-level rise is represented by the highest onlap position on a sequence boundary and the minimum sea-level fall by the lowest onlap position wikipedia.org
