Recent Developments in Fluvial Sedimentology - Contributions from the Third International Fluvial Sedimentology Conference 1987

This volume brings together 36 of
the manuscripts that were presented at the Third International Fluvial
Sedimentology Conference hosted by Colorado State University in August,
1985. Fluvial systems and sedimentary rock sequences discussed range in
age from Holocene to Precambrian and include many diverse areas. The
principal objective of the volume was to document the recent
developments in the application of facies analysis to the reconstruction
of the architecture of fluvial systems. Reconstruction of architecture
is an integral part of the overall process of basin analysis.
