Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
In the Middle Eocene shallow-marine Brussels Sands a long sand body is partly exposed, bordering a channel which marks the erosional base of the Formation. This 'Kraaiberg' facies shows a uniform sequence of metre-scale tabular, cross-bedded sets. Foresets dip parallel to the main axis of the sand body. The sedimentary structures suggest that the sand body was deposited during a short period, built up by a series of large, transverse bars. Their migration was governed by strongly asymmetrical tidal currents and was also affected by occasional storm erosion. |
