Earth-surface processes operate across erosionally dominated landscapes and deliver
sediment to depositional systems that can be preserved over a range of timescales. The …

The growth of quantitative analysis and prediction in Earth-surface science has been
accompanied by growth in experimental stratigraphy and geomorphology. Experimenters …

In an earlier book, The Geology of Fluvial Deposits (1996), I set out in detail modern
methods of facies and architectural analysis of fluvial deposits, and used numerous case …

Climate, tectonics, and life influence the flux and caliber of sediment transported across
Earth's surface. These environmental conditions can leave behind imprints in the Earth's …

Restoration of river deltas involves diverting sediment and water from major channels into
adjoining drowned areas, where the sediment can build new land and provide a platform for …

This cutting-edge summary combines ideas from several sub-disciplines including geology,
geomorphology, oceanography and geochemistry to provide an integrated view of Earth …

Internally generated, or autogenic, terrestrial and marine sediment-transport dynamics can
produce depositional patterns similar to those associated with climatic, tectonic, or sea level …

The Mississippi delta region of south Louisiana houses a wealth of resources within a
dynamic, subsiding landscape. Foundations for the delta region reflect Neogene evolution of …

Modeling is an invaluable tool for studying sedimentary basin filling and for understanding
depositional processes with long recurrence intervals, including channel avulsion …

Submarine lobe dimensions from six different systems are compared: 1) the exhumed
Permian Fan 3 lobe complex of the Tanqua Karoo, South Africa; 2) the modern Amazon fan …
