Parallel to sub-parallel strata possessing original (depositional) dips occur within both
lithologically “homogeneous” and “heterogeneous” units of water-lain, siliciclastic …

Floodplains perform diverse functions, including attenuation of fluxes of water, solutes, and
particulate material. Critical details of floodplain storage including magnitude, duration, and …

INTRODUCTION Remote observational data suggest that large bodies of standing water
existed on the surface of Mars in its early history. This would have required a much wetter …

The concept of the facies model has been the most powerful and successful tool devised by
sedimentologists for classifying and explaining ancient sediments. At present there are at …

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 …

Rivers and Floodplains is concerned with the origin, geometry, water flow, sediment
transport, erosion and deposition associated with modern alluvial rivers and floodplains …

Floodplains are formed by a complex interaction of fluvial processes but their character and
evolution is essentially the product of stream power and sediment character. The relation …

The first such reference work in thirty-five years, this is a comprehensive guide to both
specific landforms and the major types of processes that create them. This two-volume set …

The major goal of this book is to bring together evidence of active deformation on alluvial
rivers, with emphasis on geomorphological adjustment. The authors have grouped their …

The currently used model for alluvial sequence stratigraphy has been criticised (Miall, 1991)
and an alternative model is offered here. In this model alluviation mainly takes place during …
