The fragmentary nature of the stratigraphic record is particularly evident with respect to
fluvial deposits, which are characterized by a hierarchy of depositional units deposited over …

Fluvial deposits comprising more than 80% channel facies are often thought to have
accumulated during intervals of relatively slow subsidence in sedimentary basins. This …

Downstream migration of point bars is an important process in meander belts. Inherent to
downstream migration is sediment accumulation in concave channel banks, immediately …

Meandering fluvial channels and their meander belts are common in modern continental
sedimentary basins, yet compose a minor constituent of the reported fluvial rock record …

The three-dimensional reconstruction of meander-belt deposits from ancient strata provides
insight into the formative processes of meander-bend evolution and paleogeographic …

Geomorphologic features and sediment distribution from meanderbelts informs our
understanding of ancient deposits, with specific application to predicting heterogeneity in …

Meandering fluvial reaches exhibit a wide range of morphology, yet published
interpretations of ancient meanderbelt deposits do not reflect the stratigraphic complexity …

The late Holocene (last 3000 years) development of the lower Ribble valley (northwest
England) displays evidence for a complex response to a sediment recharge event forced by …

Guidelines for identifying ancient avulsion deposits were set forth by Kraus and Wells
[Kraus, MJ, Wells, TM, 1999. Recognizing avulsion deposits in the ancient stratigraphical …

Many published interpretations of ancient fluvial systems have relied on observations of
extensive outcrops of thick successions. This paper, in contrast, demonstrates that a regional …
