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

“…The Khor Al Adaid embayment of southern Qatar represents a unique shallow-water mixed siliciclastic‑carbonate coastal depositional system that developed in a hyper-arid climatic setting over the past 6000 years. The embayment, which was formed during the Flandrian transgression as a result of flooding across a partially fault-controlled incised fluvial drainage, is supplied by quartz-rich sands delivered by wind-blown dunes migrating southward across the surface of Qatar. …”
