Transgressive deposits accumulate with rising relative sea level during the landward
migration of a coastline. Particularly at short time scales (eg, 4th-to 6th-order cycles) …

Delta bathymetry, seismic data and near-surface sediment sampling on modern deltas with
significant wave, tidal or marine current influence betray a double clinoform architecture with …

The Gargano subaqueous delta formed on the eastern and southeastern sides of the
Gargano promontory, in the western Adriatic. This subaqueous deposit represents the …

The delta of the Fly River is tide dominated, both morphologically and sedimentologically:
the spring tidal range reaches 5 m, with near-bed tidal currents that commonly exceed 1 m/s …

Synchronized transitions in the polymorph mineralogy of the major reef-building and
sediment-producing calcareous marine organisms and abiotic CaCO 3 precipitates (ooids …

Because of their generally small drainage basin areas, high topographic relief, relatively
young and erodible rocks, and heavy rainfall, rivers draining the high-standing islands of the …

The Changjiang (Yangtze) River, China, has formed a large tide-dominated delta on the
western coast of the East China Sea. This paper presents the architecture and Holocene …

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 …

The largest islands of the Indo-Pacific Archipelago are estimated to account for 20–25% of
the global sediment discharge to the ocean, and much (> 50%) of this sediment is supplied …

Clinoforms on modern shelves and slopes, as well as in ancient rock records, are widely
recognized as a fundamental building element of continental margin growth. Regardless of …
