Sediment tracing is a young and rapidly growing branch of sedimentology. Successful sediment tracing began in the mid 1950’s with the advent of radioactive and fluorescent-marking techniques. Although still in infancy, modern tracing techniques clearly offer the means for delineating the dynamics of many different sedimentary environments. This particular sediment-tracing study was begun in 1959 during the writer’s graduate studies under Dr. K. 0. Emery at the University of Southern California. Due to the interest and encouragement of Dr. Emery, a number of pilot studies using fluorescent-dyed sand were conducted by the writer on several southern California beaches during 1959 and 1960. Results of these early tests were encouraging and. | DEVELOPMENTS IN SEDIMENTOLOGY 5 DEVELOPMENTS IN SEDIMENTOLOGY 5 THE MOVEMENT OF BEACH SAND FURTHER TITLES IN THIS SERIES 1. L. M. J. u.
