| Definitionskos:definition | Usually cone-shaped forms with surface slopes radiating away from an apex located at the point where the feeder SUBAERIAL CHANNEL splits to form DISTRIBUTARY CHANNELS. Their fan-like geometry can be modified by the confinement of neighbouring fans or valley walls (modified from Goudie, 2006). |
