Several of the concepts of sequence-stratigraphic models were tested by experiments in a
large flume. Using different gradients for successive runs, a physical model of a fluvial …

Developments in sequence stratigraphy have suggested many assumptions about the
manner in which coastal‐plain, shelf and slope systems along passive margins react to base …

Quantitative evaluation of fluvial response to allogenic controls is crucial for further progress
in understanding the stratigraphic record in terms of processes that control landscape …

Baselevel is the imaginary horizontal level or surface to which sub-aerial erosion proceeds.
It is sea level. Controversy surrounds the effect of baselevel change on river behavior, the …

Research in the past decade has failed to properly assess the influence of subaqueous shelf
angle on coastal plain and shelf systems along passive margins. This chapter reports on a …

This study evaluates the sequence architecture models of Vail (1987) and Galloway (1989)
in terms of the regime concepts presented in the first five papers of this volume. Comparison …

Physical modelling of clastic sedimentary systems over geological time spans has to resort
to analogue modelling since full scaling cannot be achieved within the spatial and temporal …

This study combines mathematical modelling and supporting flume experiments to address
the problem of how coastal plain rivers respond to a steady fall in relative sea‐level. The …

First-generation sequence stratigraphic models have dealt in a very rudimentary fashion
with the response of fluvial systems to eustasy. A major element of presently accepted …

Abstract Analysis of two Maastrichtian depositional cycles from the Lewis–Fox Hills shelf
margin (S. Wyoming, USA) demonstrates that rivers played the driving role in the bypass of …
