The source-to-sink (S2S) concept is focused on quantification of the various components of siliciclastic sedimentary systems from initial source sediment production areas, through the …
Deltas are discrete shoreline protuberances formed where a river enters a standing body of water and supplies sediments more rapidly than they can be redistributed by basinal …
Using modern and ancient examples we show that river-dominated deltas formed in shallow basins have multiple coeval terminal distributary channels at different scales. Sediment …

Despite the historical assumption that the bulk of marine “shelf” mud is deposited by gradual fallout from suspension in quiet water, recent studies of modern muddy shelves and their …
Analyses of deltaic facies successions highlight recurring ichnological patterns that reflect a variety of physicochemical stresses imposed upon infaunal organisms by the interaction of …
Although delta-building processes and the resultant facies and facies associations have been studied for over a century, there remains a lack of well-documented facies architectural …
