Recent development of fluvial facies models has been due to improved description of
natural river and floodplain processes and deposits using:(1) ground-penetrating radar …

Classical models developed for ancient fluvial point bars are based on the assumption that
meander bends invariably increase their radius as meander-bend apices migrate in a …

The three-dimensional geometry of fluvial channel bodies and valley fills has received much
less attention than their internal structure, despite the fact that many subsurface analyses …

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 …

A primary objective in exploration for and development of fluvial reservoirs is determining
the thickness and width of sandstone-conglomerate bodies (mainly channel-belt deposits) …

A quantitative, three‐dimensional depositional model of gravelly, braided rivers has been
developed based largely on the deposits of the Sagavanirktok River in northern Alaska …

Depositional models of braided rivers are necessary for rational interpretation of ancient
deposits, and to aid in the characterization of subsurface deposits (eg aquifers, hydrocarbon …

Methods for estimating palaeoslope from fluvial deposits have been available for some time,
but new data and improved understanding of the relevant physical processes afford the …

ABSTRACT Detailed three‐dimensional (3‐D) observations of sandy point‐bar deposits
from the River South Esk in Scotland were made using very closely spaced (metres) …

This study presents results of outcrop characterization and modeling of lithologic
heterogeneity within a well-exposed point bar of the Williams Fork Formation in Coal …
