A flood-tidal delta and a very long beach-sand deposit. The flood-tidal delta formed when incoming tides moved sand progressively inland, beyond the beach and through the tidal channel. Both the flood-tidal delta and the beach sand can be good reservoirs when they are buried in the subsurface. Block diagram is of a barrier island system, which is discussed in the text.
