Abstract

One of the major objectives of sedimentology is to infer from the properties of a bed how sand is transported and deposited by running water and wind on land and in the different realms of the ocean. This objective is an ambitious one and overlaps the objectives of those geomorphologists who study fluvial morphology and processes; of hydraulic engineers, who are concerned with the control of rivers, harbors, and beaches; of physical oceanographers, who study water movement in the ocean; and of fluid dynamicists, who study the fundamental laws of fluid motion with or without entrained particles. The problem is complex and bibliographies are long.
