Heavy minerals and provenance of late quaternary sands , - Know More
Abstract Heavy minerals in radiocarbon-dated Nile Delta core sections indicate that, during the past 35,000 years, deposits in this major eastern Mediterranean depocenter have been derived primarily from the Ethiopian Plateau Northward sediment transport has been largely by the Blue Nile and, to a lesser extent, by the Atbara River The overall similarity of heavy mineral suites in the ....

Journal of Oceanography and Marine Science - Know More
The Nile Delta coast is a dynamic sedimentary environment experiencing erosion, transport and re-deposition of sand along the coast The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of using an integrated approach of natural radioactivity of coastal sediments, heavy mineral distribution and grain size information to differentiate between the eroding and accreting areas of the Nile ....

Lesson 6 The Nile River - Know More
Erosion of the Delta The reduced supply of silt and sediment from the annual flood has caused heavy erosion in the Nile Delta and as far away as Israel The erosion, coupled with normal compaction of deltaic sediments, has decreased the inhabitable land on the Delta for the first time in over 10,000 years...
