摘要
Through flume experiment and investigation of modern deltas, it is found that in front delta, underwater distributary channels are not formed, the distributary channels of delta plain disappear immediately once extending to the lake (sea) level; front delta sand bodies are usually sheet-shaped and fan-shaped, instead of ribbon shaped. The study suggests that depositional model of fan deltas differs widely from that of river deltas. On alluvial fans and fan delta plain develop two types of topography units: channel and inter-channel, both of which are sandy-conglomeratic deposits. There is not environment for shale or mudstone deposition.
