Oceanography SECONDARY COASTAL PLAIN SOURCE FLUVIAL TRANSPORT I TRANSGRESSION REGRESSION ESTUARINE CHANNEL DEPOSITS. Figure 2. Proposed cycle of iron-stained sand on a Quaternary shelf. Sand from a piedmont or coastal plain source may travel downriver to be trapped in an estuary mouth, and be buried by a retrograding barrier. The retreat of the shore face results in the release of the estuarine sand, and also sand from subjacent older strata. Regression of the sea exposes the sand sheet thus formed to further subaerial erosion, and the cycle begins again. Iron precipitation on grain surfaces may occur at any stage. 864.
