Tectonic and climatic�controls of fluvial sedimentation and the effects of base-level change on sequence architecture are discussed. Profusely illustrated and with an extensive reference to the recent literature, this book will be welcomed by the student and professional geologist alike UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-00666-6 ER -
