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 …

Abstract Sediment Routing Systems (SRS) and Sediment Generation (SG) are two branches
of sedimentary geology which are complementary, although their full integration remains …

In the last two centuries, since the dawn of modern geology, heavy minerals have been used
to investigate sediment provenance and for many other scientific or practical applications …

We here present the first comprehensive provenance study of the Sahara Desert using a
combination of multiple provenance proxies and state-of-the-art statistical analysis. Our …

We here review what is known about the dunefields and fluvial systems of the Kalahari
Basin in terms of geological setting and Quaternary dynamics and set out what has been …

Abstract Late Mississippian to middle Permian sediment-dispersal networks of regional to
continental scale in western equatorial Pangea, depicted here in a series of …

A never solved problem in sedimentary petrology is the origin of sandstone consisting
exclusively of quartz and most durable heavy minerals. The Congo River offers an excellent …

We here review in terms of tectono-magmatic setting and Quaternary landscape dynamics
what is known about the provenance of Argentine dune fields and their fluvial feeder …

Abstract The Thar Desert is a major sediment depocenter located in southwestern Asia and
bordering the Indus drainage system to its east. It is unclear where the sediment that built the …

River‐fed dune fields characterized by relatively low quartz content are much more common
on Earth than generally assumed, and the aeolian dune field system in the Yarlung Tsangpo …
