Clast imbrication in coarse-grained mountain streams and stratigraphic archives as indicator of deposition in upper flow regime conditions

<p>Clast imbrication is one of the most conspicuous sedimentary structures in coarse-grained clastic deposits of modern rivers but also in the stratigraphic record. In this paper, we test whether the formation of this fabric can be related to the occurrence of upper flow regime conditions...
