Estuaries show dynamic patterns of channels and bars, which are also valuable habitats,
while channels provide access to harbours. In contrast with bars in rivers, we still lack …

Existing sequence-stratigraphic models for shoreline deposits commonly assume a constant
process regime throughout the relative-sea-level (RSL) cycle over a wide range of …

Although the general factors influencing the occurrence and distribution of oolitic systems
are well known, details of their landscape-scale patterns and formative processes are less …

Abstract The 3-km-wide Messina Strait divides Sicily from the Italian peninsula, representing
one of the most impressive examples of tide-dominated marine passageway of the central …

Interpreting the whole range of fluvial, wave, and tidal interactions recorded in shallow-
marine, coastal successions can be challenging. The complexity arises because …

The large-scale effects of tidal waves entering the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway from
the Gulf of Mexico have previously been modeled, but the field evidence for tides in the …

New, high-resolution, regional correlation and isopach maps provide evidence that (1)
Laramide-style deformation began as early as ca. 77 Ma in central Utah, and (2) rapid (208 …

Authigenic clay coats (mostly Fe-rich chlorite coats) affect sandstone reservoir qualities by
inhibiting quartz overgrowth during burial diagenesis, preserving both porosity and …

" This book was written for students, new professionals in oil companies, and for anyone with
an interest in reservoir geology. It explains the background to production geology in the …

Estuaries typically show converging planforms from the sea into the land. Nevertheless, their
planform is rarely perfectly exponential and often shows curvature and the presence of …
