Mixed siliciclastic-carbonate-evaporite sedimentation in an arid eolian landscape: The Khor Al Adaid tide-dominated coastal embayment, Qatar by John M., Rivers

“…Three depositional sectors are delineated: 1) an energetic, linear, fault-controlled Entrance Channel into which the eolian dunes spill directly; 2) a relatively deep (up to 20 m) Outer Lagoon, interpreted to represent a flooded karst-collapse structure; and 3) a sprawling, low-energy, shallow (<2 m) Inner Lagoon occupying low-lying areas between deflated eolian dunes.Physical oceanographic modeling, integrating multi-seasonal current meter and tidal gage measurements, demonstrates tidal current flow velocities are relatively high in both the Entrance Channel and at the constricted entrance to the Inner Lagoon. …”
