Deltas - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Understanding Holocene Paleoenvironments in Large Prograding Deltas

Utilizing stratigraphic cores from delta sediments to investigate peat, mud, and soil sequences for paleoenvironment determination, peat formation processes, depositional mechanisms, carbon dating, and elevation changes. Sampling locations, such as the Mississippi and Rhine-Meuse deltas, offer tecto

The Impact of Syn-Sedimentary Compaction on Delta Morphodynamics

This study examines the influence of syn-sedimentary compaction on delta development, particularly focusing on how compaction affects delta morphology. It addresses the lack of field measurements by proposing simulation models as an alternative approach to understanding the link between compaction a
