Abstract

Flat-topped ripple marks from the Pennsylvanian rocks of Oklahoma have been compared with similar ripple marks formed at low tide along the modern Florida coast. It is concluded that flat-topped ripple marks indicate bevelling, by wave-lets, in water approximately two inches, or less, deep.
