Deep-water sand transfer by hyperpycnal flows, the Eocene of Spitsbergen, Arctic Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Flood-generated hyperpycnal flows are dense, sediment-laden, turbulent flows that can form long-lived, bottom-hugging turbidity currents, which undoubtedly transport large volumes of fine-grained sediments into the ocean. ... -
Facies model for a coarse-grained, tide-influenced delta: Gule Horn Formation (Early Jurassic), Jameson Land, Greenland
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-05-25)Tide-dominated deltas have an inherently complex distribution of heterogeneities on several different scales, and are less well-understood than their wave- and river-dominated counterparts. Depositional models of these ... -
Sedimentary anatomy and hydrological record of relic fluvial deposits in a karst cave conduit
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This case study from the renowned Demänová Cave System in the Carpathians of Slovakia demonstrates that the conventional methods of fluvial sedimentology, combined with an allostratigraphic mapping and speleothem U-series ... -
Using climate to relate water-discharge and area in modern and ancient catchments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-06)Models relating sediment supply to catchment properties are important in order to use the geological record to deduce landscape evolution and interplay between tectonics and climate. Water-discharge (Qw) is an important ...
