This paper examines the dynamic role of alluvial fans within the fluvial landscape and their interaction with river systems, highlighting the potential value of alluvial fans to the wider fluvial archive community.
In this study, the attribute maps illustrate a wide variety of fluvial channel types, dimensions, vertical successions, and lateral relationships.
The stratigraphic framework of the 450 650 m thick alluvial succession was carried out through description and interpretation using 18 detailed sedimentary logs along a 4.5 km wide exposure, where 314 fluvial channels were analysed.
An assessment of the factors producing nutrient hysteresis was completed following a factor analysis on a suite of measured environmental variables representing the fluvial and wider watershed conditions prior to, and during the monitored storm events.
Tertiary to Quaternary Irrawaddy fluvial deposits are widely exposed throughout the central basin of Myanmar.
Those which were not found at Loc. 9-1 because of outcrop loss and erosion by fluvial channel, also have exposure-wide continuation of intervals.
Large-scale fluvial incision, resulting in basin-wide terrace formation, appears to have been concentrated at the warming limbs of the major climatic glacial interglacial cycles, when sediment supply was greatly reduced.
Martian talus slopes are governed by the different nature of the Martian environment, namely: weaker gravity, the wide availability of loose material, the lack of fluvial erosion and the typicality of large escarpments; all these factors make talus slopes a more striking areomorphic feature on Mars than on Earth.
The marginal marine environment encompasses a wide range of facies that reflect the interaction of fluvial and marine processes.
Despite its age, the regional landscape exhibits a wide range of geological/geomorphological modifications and/or features, e.g. fluvial, lacustrine, aeolian, glacial and periglacial.
Hence, because of its wide distribution in coal and overburden rocks, especially of fluvial water origin, pyrite may be recognized as the major source of acidic drainage in the mine as well as this part of Bangladesh (Uddin 2003).
