    • A sand-gravel Gilbert delta subject to base level change 

      Chavarrías Borrás, Víctor; Blom, Astrid; Orrú, Clara; Martín Vide, Juan Pedro; Viparelli, Enrica (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2018-05)
      Article
      Open Access
      Laboratory experiments were conducted on a sand-gravel Gilbert delta to gain insight on its dynamics under varying base level. Base level rise results in intensified aggradation over the topset, as well as a decrease in ...
    • Comparison between experimental and numerical stratigraphy emplaced by a prograding delta 

      Viparelli, Enrica; Blom, Astrid; Ferrer Boix, Carles; Kuprenas, Rachel (European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2014-06)
      Article
      Open Access
      A one-dimensional model that is able to store the stratigraphy emplaced by a prograding delta is validated against experimental results. The laboratory experiment describes the migration of a Gilbert delta on a sloping ...
