Fluvial landforms and deposits provide one of the most readily studied Quaternary
continental records, and alluvial strata represent an important component in most ancient …

Transgressive deposits accumulate with rising relative sea level during the landward
migration of a coastline. Particularly at short time scales (eg, 4th-to 6th-order cycles) …

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 …

Review of the second edition" For geologists and geophysicists studying sedimentary fill of
basins, this volume is a valuable addition to their shelves. The book is packed with …

This report is the result of a working group on continental sequence stratigraphy that was set
up at the 1991 NUNA conference in Banff, Canada. To date, sequence stratigraphic …

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 source-to-sink (S2S) concept is focused on quantification of the various components of
siliciclastic sedimentary systems from initial source sediment production areas, through the …

Significant volumes of terrigenous organic matter can be preserved to form coals only when
and where the overall increase in accommodation approximately equals the production rate …

The partitioning of fluvial sediment load across continental margins is an important control
on strata formation and sequence development; however, few quantitative sediment budgets …

The effects of downstream base-level control on fluvial architecture and geometry are well
explored in several broadly similar sequence-stratigraphic models. Cretaceous Dakota …
