The role of tidal, wave and river currents in the evolution of mixed‐energy deltas: Example from the Lajas Formation (Argentina)

VM Rossi, RJ Steel - Sedimentology, 2016 - Wiley Online Library

Tide-dominated deltas

SL Goodbred Jr, Y Saito - Principles of tidal sedimentology, 2011 - Springer
Among tidally influenced sedimentary environments, tide-dominated deltas are perhaps the
most variable and difficult to characterize. This variability is due in part to the major role that …
