This facies association is thus related to tidally-influenced fluvial deposits in an estuarine environment, where the alternating sandstone and finer sediment beds are attributed to alternations in the energy of the system (Johnson and Dashtgard, 2014).

(2010) found a prevalent muddy composition with some key sandstones (guias) and coal beds, in which such coal beds are interbedded with mudstone and sandstone in a pattern beginning with tidal deposits followed by coastal deposits (such as lagoons) and lastly fluvial deposits. Markov Chains statistical analyses have been used by several authors to differentiate geological processes and construct facies models based on transition frequency (Harper, 1984) and can also be used to determine which lithofacies are generally found above or below other lithofacies.
