| Definitionskos:definition | The size of the grains of sediment that comprise a sample can be described in two ways. The relative proportions of mud, sand and gravel are used to describe the TEXTURE (Folk, 1954), and the PARTICLE SIZE distribution of each fraction can be subdivided using the Wentworth (1922) scale of size classes. |
