Deposition in a Current
Ripple markscm-scale
ridges and troughs.
Develop perpendicular to
flow.
Commonly found on modern
beaches
Ripple marks can be
preserved
Found on bedding planes of
ancient sedimentary rocks
Dunessimilar to ripples
except much larger.

Terrestrial Environments
Sand-dune environments
wind-blown sand.
Result in well-sorted, well
rounded sandstones with
gigantic cross beds.
Glacial environmentsdue
to movement of ice.
Ice carries and dumps
every grain size.
Creates glacial till; poorly
sorted gravel, sand, silt,
and clay.
