Reconstruction of sediment-transport pathways on a modern microtidal coast by a new grain-size trend analysis method

Abstract A new method for granulometric-parameter-based reconstruction of sediment-transport pathways is proposed and is termed P-GSTA (grain-size trend analysis using principal component analysis) herein. The main advantage of this method is its applicability to depositional environments involving...
