Abstract Sediment Routing Systems (SRS) and Sediment Generation (SG) are two branches
of sedimentary geology which are complementary, although their full integration remains …

Provenance analysis of sediments is aimed at reconstructing the parent-rock assemblages
of sediments and the climatic-physiographic conditions under which sediments formed …

Factors controlling the geochemistry of a clastic sedimentary rock can include:(1)
composition of source terrain,(2) chemical weathering,(3) hydraulic sorting,(4) …

This cutting-edge summary combines ideas from several sub-disciplines including geology,
geomorphology, oceanography and geochemistry to provide an integrated view of Earth …

Heavy mineral concentration in sediments depends primarily on the chemistry and tectono-
stratigraphic level of rocks eroded within continental-block, arc, or orogenic source terranes …

Type and amount of sediment generation are intimately connected to tectonic and climatic
processes active at the earth's surface today as well as throughout the geologic past. Detrital …

This article investigates how, where, and to what extent the mineralogical and chemical
composition of sand-sized sediments is modified by extreme weathering in modern …

U/Pb analysis of detrital zircons from sands along the Frankland River in SW Australia reveal
marked downstream changes in their age signatures that correlate with changing basement …

Weathering profiles of granitoid rocks from the Sila Massif (southern Italy) have been studied
to characterize weathering processes that affect this area. Chemical weathering indices of …

An overview of quantitative approaches to analysis and modelling of sediment generation
and provenance is presented, with an emphasis on major framework components as …
