Petrographic classifications of sand and sandstone proposed more than half a century ago
are still in use, although they were formulated at a time when depositional and post …

More than 70% of large deltas are under threat from rising sea levels, subsidence and
anthropogenic interferences, including the Ganges–Brahmaputra–Meghna (GBM) delta, the …

The principal nature-based solution for offsetting relative sea-level rise in the Ganges-
Brahmaputra delta is the unabated delivery, dispersal, and deposition of the rivers'~ 1 billion …

Over the past decades, rare earth elements (REE) and their radioactive isotopes have
received tremendous attention in sedimentary geochemistry, as tracers for the geological …

Despite a long research history over the past 150 years, the geometry, kinematics, and
dynamic evolution of the Himalayan orogen remain poorly understood. This is mainly due to …

Sediments carried in suspension represent a fundamental part of fluvial transport.
Nonetheless, largely because of technical problems, they have been hitherto widely …

This study investigates the natural processes that control concentration of detrital minerals
and consequently chemical elements in river sand. The novelty of our approach consists in …

Continental chemical weathering is central in Earth's surface biogeochemical cycles as it
redistributes elements across reservoirs such as the crust and the oceans. However the …

In the easternmost Himalaya and southeastern Tibet, the Namche Barwa–Gyala Peri massif
and adjacent Lhasa block host some of the Earth's most active geologic processes and …

The Ganga River is one of the main conveyors of sediments produced by Himalayan
erosion. Determining the flux of elements transported through the system is essential to …
