2. Wave-formed ripple - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave-formed_ripple

   Symmetrical ripple. Although symmetrical ripples are also called bi-directional ripples there is a difference between them. Bi-directional ripples are rarely symmetrical due to the difference in force of the two directions, where as the wave formed or oscillation ripples form from the circular water movement pattern of water molecules.

3. Ripple marks - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_marks

   Like the sinuous ripples, this form of ripple is created by unidirectional flow with the dip at an angle to the flow as well as downstream. Linguoid / Lunate Linguoid ripples have lee slope surfaces that are curved generating a laminae similar to caternary and sinuous ripples. Linguoid ripples generate an angle to the flow as well as downstream.

4. Ripple effect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_effect

   A diagram of the Ripple effect illustrating how the "Weinstein Scandal" led all the way to the rise of the Me Too movement.A ripple effect occurs when an initial disturbance to a system propagates outward to disturb an increasingly larger portion of the system, like ripples expanding across the water when an object is dropped into it.

5. Patterns in nature - Wikipedia

   For example, when leaves alternate up a stem, one rotation of the spiral touches two leaves, so the pattern or ratio is 1/2. In hazel the ratio is 1/3; in apricot it is 2/5; in pear it is 3/8; in almond it is 5/13. [56] Animal behaviour can yield spirals; for example, acorn worms leave spiral fecal trails on the sea floor.

6. Giant current ripples - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_current_ripples

   Giant current ripples usually exhibit antidune breaking wave and dune ripple shapes, resulting from their high energy environments. Giant current ripples can reach a maximum height of 20 metres (66 ft) and reach a maximum length of 1 kilometre (0.62 mi). they occur in ripple fields that can cover an area several kilometers across.
