Wave-dominated Deposition

Wave-Dominated Deposition is a sedimentary process in siliciclastic environments where wave action is the primary controlling mechanism governing the distribution, sorting, and stratigraphic architecture of sediments, distinguished from tide- or river-dominated systems by the predominance of wave-generated hydrodynamic forces in shaping depositional features.
