At geologic timescales, a significant proportion of the sediment eroded from continents is transferred from rivers to littoral cells, then through submarine canyons to deep ocean basins. Accumulation and occasional discharge of sediment from canyon h

Abstract Eocene strata of the Elko Formation record lacustrine deposition within the Nevada hinterland of the North American Cordillera. We present a detailed geochemical stratigraphy enabled by high‐sampling‐resolution geochronology from lacus t

Mineralogy, petrographic textures, and sedimentary structures from the world’s largest trona deposit, the Wilkins Peak Member (WPM) of the early Eocene Green River Formation (GRF), Bridger subbasin, Wyoming, provide key data about depositional cond

Detrital-zircon U–Pb geochronology has revolutionized sediment provenance studies over the last two decades, and zircon has been successfully analyzed from nearly all sedimentary lithologies, depositional environments, and sediment grain sizes. How

Despite long-standing recognition of high-amplitude, high-frequency sea-level variation resulting from repeated glaciations of Gondwanaland, recorded as “cyclothems” in late Paleozoic strata worldwide, major questions remain concerning their prec

Cyclic strata exposed in the Inyo Mountains of eastern California contain a continuous 6 m.y. record of deep marine deposition that spans the Pennsylvanian–Permian boundary. To better understand the geologic evolution of southwest Laurentia and the

The southwestern margin of Laurentia transitioned from a left-lateral transform margin to a convergent margin by middle Permian time, which initiated the development of a subduction zone and subsequent Cordilleran arc along western Laurentia. The dis

Completion of Glen Canyon Dam in 1963 resulted in complete elimination of sediment delivery from the upstream Colorado River basin to Grand Canyon and nearly complete control of spring snowmelt floods responsible for creating channel and bar morpholo
