The physical character of subaqueous sedimentary density flows and their deposits
Tập 48 Số 2 - Trang 269-299 - 2001
The complexity of flow and wide variety of depositional processes operating in
subaqueous density flows, combined with post‐depositional consolidation and
soft‐sediment deformation, often make it difficult to interpret the
characteristics of the original flow from the sedimentary record. This has led
to considerable confusion of nomenclature in the literature. This paper attempts
to clarify this s...
Fluvial responses to climate and sea‐level change: a review and look forward
Tập 47 Số s1 - Trang 2-48 - 2000
SummaryFluvial landforms and deposits provide one of the most readily studied
Quaternary continental records, and alluvial strata represent an important
component in most ancient continental interior and continental margin
successions. Moreover, studies of the long‐term dynamics of fluvial systems and
their responses to external or ‘allogenic' controls, can play important roles in
research concern...
A REVIEW OF THE ORIGIN AND CHARACTERISTICS OF RECENT ALLUVIAL SEDIMENTS
Tập 5 Số 2 - Trang 89-191 - 1965
SUMMARYRecent alluvial sediments are reviewed with respect to their geometrical,
textural, structural and biological characteristics. These properties are
related to the physiographic occurrence and hydraulic geometry of streams and to
the dynamics of flowing water as controlling sediment transport‐deposition and
stream morphological activities. Based on this data, three‐dimensional facies
models ...
Water escape structures in coarse‐grained sediments
Tập 22 Số 2 - Trang 157-204 - 1975
ABSTRACTThree processes of water escape characterize the consolidation of silt‐,
sand‐and gravel‐sized sediments. Seepage involves the slow upward movement of
pore fluids within existing voids or rapid flow within compact and confined
sediments. Liquefaction is marked by the sudden breakdown of a metastable,
loosely packed grain framework, the grains becoming temporarily suspended in the
pore flui...
Basic types of stratification in small eolian dunes
Tập 24 Số 3 - Trang 361-387 - 1977
ABSTRACTThe thinnest recognizable strata in modern eolian dune sands can be
grouped into six classes. They are herein named planebed laminae, rippleform
laminae, ripple‐foreset crosslaminae, climbing translatent strata, grainfall
laminae, and sandflow cross‐strata.Planebed laminae are formed by tractional
deposition on smooth surfaces at high wind velocities. They are very rare in the
deposits stu...
Lithofacies types and vertical profile models; an alternative approach to the description and environmental interpretation of glacial diamict and diamictite sequences
Tập 30 Số 3 - Trang 393-410 - 1983
ABSTRACT Increased knowledge of modern glacial depositional environments has
resulted in rapidly evolving classifications of glacial tills. These are based
to a large degree on theoretical considerations of likely depositional
processes. The classifications are sophisticated and more advanced than the
establishment of simple field criteria whereby individual till facies can be
identified in Quater...
Variability of deltaic processes in terms of sediment supply, with particular emphasis on grain size
Tập 40 Số 3 - Trang 475-512 - 1993
ABSTRACTShort term variability in delta form and process can be partly explained
by the relative strength of hydraulic parameters such as river discharge,
discharge variability, wave energy flux and tidal range. However, the calibre or
grain size is also important. The amount, mode of transport and grain size of
the sediment load delivered to a delta front have a considerable effect on the
facies,...
A simulation model of alluvial stratigraphy
Tập 26 Số 5 - Trang 617-644 - 1979
ABSTRACTThe quantitative model presented simulates the development of a
two‐dimensional alluvial sedimentary succession beneath a floodplain traversed
by a single major river. Several inter‐related effects which influence the
distribution of channel‐belt sand and gravel bodies within overbank fines are
accounted for. These are (a) laterally variable aggradation, (b) compaction of
fine sediment, (c...
Spatial and temporal distribution of diagenetic alterations in siliciclastic rocks: implications for mass transfer in sedimentary basins
Tập 47 Số s1 - Trang 95-120 - 2000
SummaryThe spatial and temporal distribution of diagenetic alterations in
siliciclastic sequences is controlled by a complex array of interrelated
parameters that prevail during eodiagenesis, mesodiagenesis and telodiagenesis.
The spatial distribution of near‐surface eogenetic alteration is controlled by
depositional facies, climate, detrital composition and relative changes in
sea‐level. The most...
Rhizoliths in terrestrial carbonates: classification, recognition, genesis and significance
Tập 27 Số 6 - Trang 613-629 - 1980
ABSTRACTRhizoliths are defined as organosedimentary structures resulting in the
preservation of roots of higher plants, or remains thereof, in mineral matter.
They are abundant and characteristic features of Quaternary terrestrial
carbonates (calcretes and aeolianites) from coastal regions of the western
Mediterranean. Field and petrographic observations indicate that five basic
types of rhizolith...
