Provides a thorough summary of sediment transport and depositional processes within an environmental facies framework. Emphasis is placed on active processes and recent sediments, although examples from the ancient rock record are also used where appropriate. These processes are not only of academic interest, but are of basic importance to an understanding of many environmental problems, including soil erosion, siltation, coastal erosion, flood defense, and waste disposal.
