In Amazonia, the source of a huge Pleistocene sediment deposit is traced back to different source areas and the buildup and history is explained in connection with sea-level changes. In the recent Amazonian floodplains, mixing of different sediment types takes place. In the SE corner of the North Sea the landward transport of muddy sediments within estuaries was determined and in the North Sea itself, the transport of fine-grained particles along the coast from SW to NE seems to be obvious. -from Authors
