“…Figure 1D through F, in yellow at x = 2.2 and x = 2.5 of Figure 3E; Figure 4 inset); (c) decreased channel activity and bed aggradation downstream (compare the two timestacks of Figure 3 where the many more 'vertical lines' in the distal cross-section indicate a lack of large channels and channel migration); and (d) significant autogenic reworking (see lateral migration of channels in blue in the proximal cross-section in Figure 3A). It is increasingly understood that sedimentary archives record mundane, sub-annual deposition as opposed to extreme events (Paola et al, 2018;Davies et al, 2019;Holbrook and Miall, 2020), such that the conducted experiments can be appropriately linked to the four most widely followed down-DFS facies criteria: (a) decreased channel size; (b) decreased grain size; (c) decreased channel confinement; and (d) increased dispersal of currents (Horton and Decelles, 2001;Weissmann et al, 2010Weissmann et al, , 2013Weissmann et al, , 2015Davidson et al, 2013;Owen et al, 2015aOwen et al, , 2015bVentra and Clarke, 2018).…”
