Influence of superimposed bedforms and flow unsteadiness on formation of cross strata in dunes and unit bars

Formation of angle-of-repose cross strata on the lee side of dunes and unit bars is dependent on three main grain-sorting mechanisms: (1) presorting of sediment that arrives at the lee side of the bedform, related to superimposed bedforms and longer-term variations in water flow and sediment transpo...
