2. Ripple marks - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_marks

   Very small cross-lamination means that the ripple height is roughly one centimeter. It is lenticular, wavy and flaser lamination. Small Small cross-bedding are ripples set at a height less than ten centimeters, while the thickness is only a few millimeters. Some ripples that may fit this category are wind ripples, wave ripples, and current ripples.

3. Cross-bedding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-bedding

   Where the set height is less than 6 centimeters and the cross-stratification layers are only a few millimeters thick, the term cross-lamination is used, rather than cross-bedding. Cross-bed sets occur typically in granular sediments, especially sandstone , and indicate that sediments were deposited as ripples or dunes, which advanced due to a ...

4. Paleocurrent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleocurrent

   Cross-bedding – the axis of a trough cross bed or the down-dip direction of a tabular cross bed point the direction of paleo flow. Current ripple marks – will have the short side of the ripple pointing down stream. Sole markings/flute casts – the short, steep side will point up stream, and the long, tapered side points down stream.

5. Sedimentary structures - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedimentary_structures

   Asymmetrical ripple marks These are created by a one way current, for example in a river, or the wind in a desert. This creates ripple marks with still pointed crests and rounded troughs, but which are inclined more strongly in the direction of the current. For this reason, they can be used as palaeocurrent indicators.

6. Lamination (geology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamination_(geology)

   In geology, lamination (from Latin lāmina 'thin layer') is a small-scale sequence of fine layers (pl.: laminae; sg.: lamina) that occurs in sedimentary rocks. Laminae are normally smaller and less pronounced than bedding .

   OPEC+ faces a major oil oversupply in 2025, challenging production increases. The coalition has tried to boost oil prices by holding back output. Instead, members are ceding control to non-OPEC ...

9. Turbidite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbidite

   Classic, low-density turbidites are characterized by graded bedding, current ripple marks, climbing ripple laminations, alternating sequences with pelagic sediments, distinct fauna changes between the turbidite and native pelagic sediments, sole markings, thick sediment sequences, regular bedding, and an absence of shallow-water features.
