Littoral landforms of Lake Hulun and Lake Buir (China and Mongolia)
Wind-driven hydro-sedimentary dynamics and resulting clastics distribution
Two rectangular-shaped lakes, Lake Hulun and Lake Buir, located at the boundary between China and Mongolia, only c. 75 km apart and therefore experiencing similar wind fields, have been studied based on satellite images and field surveys in order to compare their geomorphologi ...
Crevasse splay morphodynamics near a non-vegetated, ephemeral river terminus
Insights from process-based modelling
Crevasse splays generate subtle local relief and contribute to fluvial basin sedimentary filling but controls on splay development along dryland rivers remain poorly understood owing to limited field, laboratory, and numerical modelling studies. Based on previously-acquired fi ...
In natural deltaic settings, mixed hydrodynamic forcings and sediment properties are known to influence the preserved delta deposits. One process that has not received much attention yet is syn-sedimentary compaction of clastic sediment on millennial-scale delta evolution. To ...
