LeBlond Abstract The planimetric shape of Wreck Bay has been studied by fitting various segments of the bay to theoretical logarithmic spiral curves, and by using the characteristics of incident swell to estimate longshore sediment transport along the beach GeoRef, Copyright...

The seafloor is composed of very few sandy patches and very extended siliciclastic muds and silts that are transported by rivers into Brunei Bay and then further on along the northern coast...

In the Quebec Embayment, the Iapetan paired magmatic belts are repeated twice in the limbs of a Z-shaped orocline related to oblique, dextral offsets of ca. 1200 km of the southern limb...
