Sand ripples and dunes

F Charru, B Andreotti, P Claudin - Annual Review of Fluid …, 2013 - annualreviews.org
An erodible bed sheared by a fluid flow, gas or liquid, is generally unstable, and bed forms
grow. This review discusses the following issues, in light of the recent literature: What are the …

Predicting bedforms and primary current stratification in cohesive mixtures of mud and sand

JH Baas, JL Best, J Peakall - Journal of the Geological Society, 2016 - lyellcollection.org
The use of sedimentary structures as indicators of flow and sediment morphodynamics in
ancient sediments lies at the very heart of sedimentology, and allows reconstruction of …

Subaqueous sediment density flows: Depositional processes and deposit types

PJ Talling, DG Masson, EJ Sumner… - …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Submarine sediment density flows are one of the most important processes for moving
sediment across our planet, yet they are extremely difficult to monitor directly. The speed of …

[图书][B] Sedimentology and stratigraphy

G Nichols - 2009 - books.google.com
Sedimentary rocks contain the most important archive of environmental change through
earth history. They record changing climates, the movement of plates, and the rise and fall of …

[图书][B] Rivers and floodplains: forms, processes, and sedimentary record

JS Bridge - 2003 - books.google.com
Rivers and Floodplains is concerned with the origin, geometry, water flow, sediment
transport, erosion and deposition associated with modern alluvial rivers and floodplains …

The pervasive role of biological cohesion in bedform development

J Malarkey, JH Baas, JA Hope, RJ Aspden… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
Sediment fluxes in aquatic environments are crucially dependent on bedform dynamics.
However, sediment-flux predictions rely almost completely on clean-sand studies, despite …

Depositional processes, bedform development and hybrid bed formation in rapidly decelerated cohesive (mud–sand) sediment flows

JH Baas, JL Best, J Peakall - Sedimentology, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Flows with high suspended sediment concentrations are common in many sedimentary
environments, and their flow properties may show a transitional behaviour between fully …

Morphology and flow fields of three‐dimensional dunes, Rio Paraná, Argentina: Results from simultaneous multibeam echo sounding and acoustic Doppler current …

DR Parsons, JL Best, O Orfeo, RJ Hardy… - Journal of …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Most past studies of river dune dynamics have concentrated on two‐dimensional (2‐D) bed
forms, with constant heights and straight crest lines transverse to the flow, and their …

Deposit structure and processes of sand deposition from decelerating sediment suspensions

EJ Sumner, LA Amy, PJ Talling - Journal of …, 2008 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Turbidity currents are notoriously difficult to monitor directly, therefore interpretation of their
deposits forms the basis for much of our understanding of these flows. The deceleration rate …
