THE LOWER EOCENE RODA SANDSTONE (SOUTH-CENTRAL PYRENEES):AN EXAMPLE OF A FLOOD-DOMINATED RIVER-DELTA SYSTEMIN A TECTONICALLY CONTROLLED BASIN
The lower Eocene Roda Sandstone (Figols Group, south-central Pyrenees) mainly consists of mouth bars and delta-front sandstone lobes deposited in a flood-dominated river-delta system. The deposition of these bodies was strongly controlled by an interaction between flood-dominated gravity flows enter...
