TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an assessment of 33 deltas chosen to represent the world's Deltas and find that in the past decade, 85% of them experienced severe flooding, resulting in the temporary submergence of 260,000 km2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wave-influenced deltas: geomorphological implications for facies reconstruction
TL;DR: In this article, a process-based facies model for asymmetric wave-influenced deltas predicts significant river-borne muds with potentially lower quality reservoir facies in prodelta and downdrift areas, and better quality sand in updrift areas.

TL;DR: In this paper, morphologic and chronologic evidence indicates that fluvial landscapes in Harappan territory became remarkably stable during the late Holocene as aridification intensified in the region after approximately 5,000 BP.

Holocene aridification of India
Camilo Ponton,Liviu Giosan,Timothy I. Eglinton,Timothy I. Eglinton,Dorian Q. Fuller,Joel E. Johnson,Pushpendra Kumar,Timothy S. Collett +7 more
TL;DR: The authors reconstructs the Holocene paleoclimate in the core monsoon zone (CMZ) of the Indian peninsula using a sediment core recovered offshore from the mouth of the Godavari River.
