TL;DR: Some of the principles of tidal wave theory and examples of mega-, macro-, meso-and micro-tidal coasts are reviewed, as well as sedimentary successions showing general tidal signals (tidalites) and thinly-laminated, cyclically stacked tidal strata (Tidal rhythmites) as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, different types of mixing (compositional versus strata) controlled by different allocyclic (e.g., sea-level, climate) and/or autocyclic factors that operate at different scale are documented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify a suite of deltaic and non-deltaic depositional environments occupying semi-confined marine embayments along the southern-western basin margin.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the upper Miocene to Middle Pleistocene sedimentary successions of Basilicata, Calabria and NE Sicily, showing laterally-accreted, cross-strata of mixed composition, with the siliciclastic fraction derived from either sedimentary or metamorphic rocks and the bioclastic fraction produced by an in situ or near situ heterozoan factory.

TL;DR: In this article, it is suggested that this particular facies of mud-free, silici-bioclastic arenite rhythmites in the stratigraphic record might indicate a specific type of depositional sub-tidal environment of straits and embayments and the shortest-term tidal cycles.
