Figure 1. Schematic section showing main architectural elements of a hyperpycnal channel-levee complex (CLC). 1. Cut-and-fill structures (cf), climbing dunes (cd), and inertial deposits (id) of the lower channel fill facies association. 2. Tabular beds onlapping the channel margin of the upper channel fill facies association. 3. Levee facies association integrated by muddy heterolithics. Note well-defined lenticular bedding structure.
