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

▪ Abstract Avulsion is the natural process by which flow diverts out of an established river
channel into a new permanent course on the adjacent floodplain. Avulsions are primarily …

The three-dimensional geometry of fluvial channel bodies and valley fills has received much
less attention than their internal structure, despite the fact that many subsurface analyses …

Abstract Models of braided-river deposition must be detailed, fully 3D, and preferably
quantitative to be of use in understanding and predicting the nature of ancient deposits. In …

The Siwalik formations of northern Pakistan consist of deposits of ancient rivers that existed
throughout the early Miocene through the late Pliocene. The formations are highly …

An analysis of remotely sensed imagery reveals that fluvial planform geometries within
aggrading continental areas are dominated by distributive fluvial systems (DFSs). We …

Abstract Analysis of more than 700 modern continental sedimentary basins that are both
endorheic (internally drained) and exorheic (externally drained) and cover a wide range of …

Alluvial deposits of the Guadalope-Matarranya system (Oligocene, Ebro basin, Spain) and
the Wasatch Formation (Eocene, western Colorado), provide time-integrated records of the …

A primary objective in exploration for and development of fluvial reservoirs is determining
the thickness and width of sandstone-conglomerate bodies (mainly channel-belt deposits) …

Recent development of fluvial facies models has been due to improved description of
natural river and floodplain processes and deposits using:(1) ground-penetrating radar …
