This paper provides a new facies model of gravelly cyclic steps that includes a facies model of lee side and variations deposited from hyperpycnal and surge‐type high‐density turbidity currents. Abstract Gravelly cyclic steps formed by turbidity currents have recently been widely recognised in the geological record.

Abstract Current climate change in the Arctic is unprecedented in the instrumental record, with profound consequences for the environment and landscape. In Arctic Sweden, aeolian sand dunes have been impacted by climatic changes since their initial formation after the retreat of the last glacial ice sheet.

Reduction of deltaic channel mobility by tidal action under rising relative sea level [PDF]
As Holocene river deltas continue to experience sea-level rise, sediment carried by distributary channels counteracts delta-plain drowning. Many deltas worldwide are subject to tidal action, which strongly affects the morphology of distributary channels ...

This study integrates and expands the U–Pb detrital zircon dataset from the Colton fluvial system to highlight spatial variations in provenance signals within the early Palaeogene infill of the south‐western Uinta Basin, in Utah. The provenance data sheds light on the origin of clastic sediment and on the relationship with potential palaeodrainage ...

Spatial and temporal dynamics of aufeis in the Tso Moriri basin, eastern Ladakh, India
Abstract Aufeis is a common phenomenon in cold regions of the Northern Hemisphere that develops during winter by successive water overflow and freezing on ice‐covered surfaces. Most studies on aufeis occurrence focus on regions in North America and Siberia, while research in High Mountain Asia (HMA) is still in an exploratory phase.

The strategic and the stratigraphic: a working paper on the dynamics of organisational evolution. [PDF]
Despite large debates over fundamental issues a broadly evolutionary paradigm of organisations is growing in legitimacy. It may though be preferable to replace the metaphor of the organisation as an organism with the literal assertion that both social ...

Towards a sequence stratigraphic solution set for autogenic processes and allogenic controls: Upper Cretaceous strata, Book Cliffs, Utah, USA [PDF]
Upper Cretaceous strata exposed in the Book Cliffs of east–central Utah are widely used as an archetype for the sequence stratigraphy of marginal-marine and shallow-marine deposits.

Late Jurassic extension, footwall uplift, erosion and karstification of marine Jurassic carbonates in the western Cameros Basin (Spain) resulted in the deposition of ?Upper Kimmeridgian‐Tithonian syntectonic alluvial fan deposits and a series of ?Tithonian to Berriasian distal alluvial marls, palustrine, lacustrine and finally lagoonal carbonates.
