Type of cross-bedding as a criterion of the genesis of sediments
Authors:
Abstract
Observations on the forms and character of cross-bedding led me to pose the question of whether they might serve as a criterion for recognizing the genesis of this stratum. The objectives of this work are: 1) to arouse interest and outline a program for detailed and thorough observations on the highly distinctive phenomena of cross-bedding; 2) to indicate an approach to their interpretation (given the current state of our knowledge); and 3) by applying these general considerations to observed specific cases, to raise the question of the possible elucidation of the genesis of the coal-bearing stratum of the Moscow Basin and of continental deposits in general, through the study of the character of stratification.
