Grain size along two gravel-bed rivers : statistical variation, spatial pattern and sedimentary links

Auteurs :
RICE, S.
CHURCH, M.

Description :
This paper analyses the spatial changes in grain size which occur along two upland gravel-bed rivers in northeastern British Columbia. The work is distinguished by the scope and resolution of the sampling programme. These distinctions are underlain by a conviction that a better appreciation of the circumstances within which fining processes actually operate requires more detailed sampling than has been customary. Identification of sedimentary links provides a means of applying models of fluvial fining processes, so isolation of link networks will aid the development of basin-scale models of textural variation.
