Characteristics of floodplain deposits within a braided sandur system in upper Erdalen (Nordfjord, western Norway) / Katja Laute, Achim A. Beylich.

Title: Characteristics of floodplain deposits within a braided sandur system in upper Erdalen (Nordfjord, western Norway) / Katja Laute, Achim A. Beylich.
Author(s): Laute, Katja.
Beylich, Achim A.
Date: 2010.
In: Geografiska Annaler. Series A. Physical Geography. (2010.), Vol. 92(2) (2010)
Abstract: Characterises morphology and contemporary floodplain deposit dynamics within braided sandur system in steep U-shaped valley. Sandur system is fed by two tributary valleys connected to Jostedalsbreen. Based on field observations, identifies two sub-systems: fine-grained to sandy flood sediments down-valley; and coarser, gravely deposits in upper part. Applies sedimentological and stratigraphic analyses, ¹⁴C dating, dendrochronology and lichenometry to study sediment dynamics, interpreting coarser deposits as from Little Ice Age advance and floodplain sediments from subsequent period. Discusses sedimentary facies types and identifies phases of flooding.
