Existing methods of facies analysis for fluvial deposits rely extensively on vertical profile
analysis and comparisons with a limited array of fixed “end member” facies models …

Parallel to sub-parallel strata possessing original (depositional) dips occur within both
lithologically “homogeneous” and “heterogeneous” units of water-lain, siliciclastic …

INTRODUCTION Remote observational data suggest that large bodies of standing water
existed on the surface of Mars in its early history. This would have required a much wetter …

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 …

Rivers and Floodplains is concerned with the origin, geometry, water flow, sediment
transport, erosion and deposition associated with modern alluvial rivers and floodplains …

Floodplains are formed by a complex interaction of fluvial processes but their character and
evolution is essentially the product of stream power and sediment character. The relation …

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 currently used model for alluvial sequence stratigraphy has been criticised (Miall, 1991)
and an alternative model is offered here. In this model alluviation mainly takes place during …

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 …

Nonrenewable energy resources, comprising fossil fuels and uranium, are not ran domly
distributed within the Earth's crust. They formed in response to a complex array of geologic …
