“…However, Red Sea Hills derived sediment has not been considered as an end-member in modelling of the Sr and Nd isotope composition of sediments in the Nile delta cone (Krom et al 2002;Revel et al 2014). Although construction of the Aswan High Dam has clearly affected the trunk Nile sediment flux downstream, comparison of petrographic data from samples collected prior to and subsequent to construction of the dam indicates that sediment composition is minimally affected (Garzanti et al 2015). Iizuka et al (2013) presented coupled U-Pb, Lu-Hf and O-isotope data for detrital zircons from a sample of modern Nile sand taken 'Near Cairo City'.…”

“…The Nile sediments mainly reflect the intensity of rainfall in the headwaters; this intensity has direct control on weathering, erosion, and transport of sediments (Krom et al, 2002;Revel et al, 2010;Box et al, 2011;Garzanti et al, 2015). The present-day summer floods of the Nile are linked to a northward movement of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and the African rain belt (ARB; Fig.…”
