Type of cross-bedding as a criterion for the genesis of sediments
Authors:
Abstract
Observations of the forms and character of cross-bedding gave me reason to ask myself whether they could serve as a criterion for recognizing the genesis of this sequence. The purpose of this work is: 1) to arouse interest and outline a program for detailed and careful observations of the very peculiar phenomena of cross-bedding; 2) indicate an approach to their interpretation (given the current state of our knowledge) and 3) applying these general considerations to the observed specific cases, raise the question of the possible clarification of the genesis of the coal-bearing strata of the Moscow basin and continental deposits in general by studying the nature of the bedding."
