Ripple Mark – an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

Ripple marks are caused by water flowing over loose sediment which creates bed forms by moving sediment with the flow. Bed forms are linked to flow velocity and sediment size, whereas ripples are characteristic of shallow water deposition and can also be caused by wind blowing over the surface.

What are Ripple Marks? – Geology Page

Ripple marks are ridges of sediment that form in response to wind blowing along a layer of sediment. They are form perpendicular to the wind …

Features from the field: Ripple Marks – EGU Blogs

Not all bedforms are the result of a single and dominant current. Symmetric ripples are formed by bidirectional currents: currents that move in …

Bedforms: ripples and dunes – Geology is the Way

Asymmetric ripples form at the contact between water/air and the sediment drag by a unidirectional current. The initial stages of formation of ripples are not …

Ripple marks – GeoKansas

Ripples may be made by water or, in sand dunes, by wind. The symmetry of water-current ripple marks indicate whether they were formed by gentle waves or faster …

Ripples and Dunes

When a wind or water current flows across loose sand, the sand is dragged along the bottom and frequently is piled up to form ripples and dunes.
