The Palaeozoic evolution of land plants revolutionized river geomorphology. However, the
relationships between biotic forcing and channel dynamics are still debated and, as such …

Stratal stacking patterns provide the basis for the definition of all units and surfaces of
sequence stratigraphy. The same types of stacking patterns may be observed at different …

Stratigraphic cyclicity can be observed at different scales. At each scale of observation (ie,
hierarchical level), the building blocks of the sequence stratigraphic framework are …

Minerals in the barite (BaSO4)–celestine (SrSO4) solid solution series,(Ba, Sr) SO4, occur in
a remarkably diverse range of sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous geological …

The morphologies of the world's deltas are thought to be determined by river discharge, tidal
range and wave action. More recently, sea-level rise, and human engineering have been …

In present-day alluvial environments, the impact of vegetation on sedimentological
processes and deposits is well known. A vegetated catchment may decrease sediment yield …

Stratigraphy is defined as the study of layered rocks. In the context of sedimentary geology in
general, and of this book in particular, stratigraphy is the discipline that pulls everything …

The Permian-Triassic transition in the Karoo Basin of South Africa was characterized by a
rapid and apparently basin-wide change from meandering to braided river systems, as …

We modify a simple numerical stream‐pattern model to examine the effect of sediment
stabilization by roots on the channel pattern of bedload rivers. In the model, vegetation …

The 30 to 155 m thick Early Permian (Artinskian) Warchha Sandstone of the Salt Range,
Pakistan is a conglomerate, sandstone and claystone succession within which seven …
