This book contains 31 papers, with authors from 13 countries, who participated in the Sixth International Conference on Fluvial Sedimentology held in Cape Town, South Africa, in 1977. True to the nature of these quadrennial conferences, the papers in this book discuss a broad range of fluvial subjects that include the character of bedforms and sediment transport in river channels, morphological and sedimentological features of modern fluvial environments, modern and ancient avulsions, internal and external controls on the behaviour of river systems, and the facies and architectural organization of alluvial deposits. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli style=\"list-style: none\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA specialist volume detailing the latest advances in fluvial sedimentology.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAuthorship includes the leaders in the field.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIf you are a member of the International Association of Sedimentologists, for purchasing details, please see:\u003c\/b\u003e http:\/\/www.iasnet.org\/publications\/details.asp?code=SP28\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003eNorman D.
