Abstract: Studies of distributive fluvial systems and their preserved successions envisage the distribution and orientation of architectural elements to be primarily controlled by channels radiating outward from fan apices, in many cases along an elongate basin margin. Conceptual models for such systems account for the downstream dynamics of the fluvial network, but with limited consideration of temporal geomorphic variations, resulting vertical organisation of architectural elements, or of the interplay of factors cont… Show more

“…The ability to make inferences of discharge variability is also potentially important for subsurface studies, because it allows attempts at predicting the larger-scale architectural configuration of alluvial strata and of the types of sedimentary heterogeneities that may occur within sandbodies (cf., Plink-Björklund, 2015;Nicholas et al, 2016;Esposito et al, 2018;Fielding et al, 2018). Likewise, in outcrop studies of the rock record, the relative frequency of facies with sedimentary structures relating to bedforms and processes that are typically produced under lower and upper flow-regimes are often taken as indicators of water-discharge seasonality and flashiness and as evidence for environmental change, though usually in combination with other independent geological proxies, such as larger-scale sedimentary architectures or pedogenic features (Fielding, 2006;Plink-Björklund, 2015;Sakai et al, 2016;Colombera et al, 2017a;Gall et al, 2017;Fielding et al, 2018;Soares et al, 2018;Bataille et al, 2019). Data from the studied river reaches support the view that discharge regime is a primary control on the facies organization of fluvial channel deposits, as differences and trends are seen statistically.…”

In many cases, these relationships can be related to a cyclo-stratigraphical framework based upon a climatic control (Howell & Mountney, 1997;Mountney & Jagger, 2004;Hassan et al, 2018;Soares et al, 2018;Xu et al, 2019).…”
