| Abstract: | <p> A detailed section of the Duck Cove Member (Nadon, 1981) of the Triassic Lepreau Formation of Southern New Brunswick is measured.</p> <p> The section consists of a complex sequence of conglomerates and sandstones with a minor occurrence of mudstones and breccia. A description of the facies is provided and an interpretation is based on observations of ancient and marine braided stream deposits of Miall (1978) and Allen (1983). The Markov chain analysis is used to describe the vertical succession of facies.</p> <p> Paleoflow indicators suggest a flow towards the south or southeast. However this conclusion is based on limited availability of data.</p> |
