The World's Most Unloved Sedimentary Structures - A New Process Model for Flutes and Tool Marks

Explore a comprehensive lecture on the often-overlooked sedimentary structures known as flutes and tool marks. Delve into a new process model for these deep-marine formations, addressing long-standing questions and examining the flow types responsible for their creation. Learn about the implications of this research, including a revised Bouma Sequence diagram. Gain insights from Professor Jeff Peakall of the University of Leeds as he contrasts the neglect of sole structures with the frequent study of aggradational bedforms. Discover how these underappreciated structures can provide valuable information about ancient flow patterns and aid in geological interpretation and prediction.
