GRANPLOTS SPREADSHEET APPLICATION FOR SIEVED DATA

(ver. 4.0)

DIRECTIONS FOR INPUT

1) Enter values into the following fields in the spreadsheet DATA:
Start Sieve Size (phi):
Pan Sieve Size (phi):
End Sieve Size (phi):
Sieve Interval (phi):
(Plus all other relevant sample identification information)
NOTE:
Input fields in GRANPLOTS DATA
are in yellow
Output fields in GRANPLOTS DATA
are in green
2) Enter weight (grams) of sediment retained on each sieve in the table of spreadsheet GRANPLOTS DATA.
3) If necessary, adjust the x-axis on graphs to fit your sieve start and end size.

OUTPUT
1) GRANPLOTS DATA: lists data, sample information, statistical results, and displays a frequency plot.
2) ACUMPLOT: Cumulative plot of grain-size data on Arithmetic Probability axes.

3) PANCHECK: Statistical results can vary greatly depending on how the pan fraction is treated. If the pan
fraction mid-point is large and the means signficantly increase in value for increasing pan values, the pan
fraction needs further analysis (e.g.,Sedigraph, pipette, Coulter Counter) at 1/4-phi intervals, and moment
measures recalculated. If progressive differences for pan phi-size values are small, sample statistics stand as
representative.
4) INTERPRET: Spreadsheet provides guidance on interpretation of the transpo-depositional history of the
sample.

5) SEGMENT DATASHEET: (NEW) Spreadsheet for fitting straight-line segments to cumulatively plotted data
for identification of transpo-depositional processes.

6) SEGMENT ACUMPLOT: (NEW) Cumulative plot that includes straight-line transpo-depositional segments
from SEGMENT DATASHEET with descriptions. It is designed for assisting in producing publication-quality
figures. The labels designating the depositional agents and the arrows can be adjusted to acoommodate each
particular sample.

RESEARCH NOTE

In assessing transpo-depositional signatures, low to moderate energy environments produce the most consiste
results. If energy conditions are high, there may occur a condition where the depositional signature moves off
the coarse end of the accumulative plots, since we normally only analyze granule or smaller particle sizes. In
such cases, the plot may result in a straight line. This does not necessarily mean the sample analysis is in erro
but rather that energy conditions for the laminae sampled were strong. It should be noted, however, that even
normally high-energy environments, low or moderate energy conditions do occur and their signatures are valid

Statistical results can vary greatly depending upon how the pan
fraction, if present, is treated. Results for various pan mid-points are
listed below. If the pan fraction is large or the pan mid-point value is
large, and the means significantly increase in value from left to right,
the pan fraction needs further analysis (e.g., Sedigraph, pipette,
Coulter Counter) and moment measures reassessed.

If the progressive trend of the % difference is small, say less

than 1.0 or 2.0% (perhaps even larger, depending on the sample) of the
pan excluded mean value, then further processing of the pan fraction
is not needed and sample moment measures stand as representative.

There is no software available for automatically interpreting transpo-depostional environments of sediments. That must be done by the researcher
wish to print a physical copy of worksheet INTERPRET to have nearby for reference. In this worksheet such interpretation is possible by precisely fitting
line segments to the data. Straight-line segments on Arithmetic Probability axes represent distinctly different transpo-depositional processes. Here is ho

Originally plotted data from GRANPLOTS DATA appear below. By referring to these data and toggling back and forth to worksheet SEGMENT AC
straight lines can be easily fitted. Start with the coarser data (lower left-hand corner on SEGMENT ACUMPLOT) and select points that would appear to
straight line. Use a minimum of 3 points to define a line segment. Enter the segment as a first point and last point in the input area below. Check SEGM
ACUMPLOT to see how good the fit is. The line should at least touch each point in the selected segment. If not, adjust your selection. Also, check the
statistic below: it should probably be greater than 0.999. In this manner, proceed to each succeedingly finer segment until the plot is satisfactorily compl
may wish to have the lines overlap to clarify straight-line segment relationships; and particularly so for the central segment. Simply specify % overlap in
section below until you are satified. Normally, there will be 1 to 4 segments per sample plot, even though 8 such segments are allowed for below.

Once straight-line segments are fitted, turn your attention exclusively to SEGMENT ACUMPLOT. You will see a selection of labels and arrows in
ACUMPLOT. Drag the labels and arrows (arrows will probably have to be rotated) to described the segments using worksheet INTERPRET as a guide.
unused labels and arrows can be eliminated using the cut command. Please note that SEGMENT ACUMPLOT has been designed (e.g., label size) so t
copy it to a WORD page. From 4 to 6 resized plots can be fitted to a page, suitable for publication in a professional journal.
