Diagenesis is the sum of those processes by which originally sedimentary clastic
assemblages attempt to reach equilibrium with their environments. The subject has rapidly …

Entrainment, transport and deposition of dust in and around deserts has major geological
implications. A consideration of the mechanics of dust transport and deposition shows that …

This paper describes the frequency of dust storms, their distribution, associated rates of
sediment deposition, the amount of erosion they accomplish, and the nature of the materials …

Silcrete has been widely cited as an indicator of arid or semi-arid environments, such a
