Domain-specific¶
- Deposition
- When energy decreases — because a channel widens, a slope flattens, a flow enters standing water, or a wind decelerates in the lee of an obstacle — the surplus load is dropped, coarsest and densest material first because settling velocity scales with grain size and density
This sourceNichols's sedimentology textbook, which shows settling velocity determined by grain size, shape and density and deposition following flow deceleration.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
