Hummocky cross-stratification is believed to be one of the diagnostic sedimentary structures
of storm-dominated shallow-marine environments. The wavelength of this stratification …

A new depositional model for hummocky cross-stratified sandstones is based on the
following observations.(1) Storms transport coastal sand to the inner shelf under oscillatory …

Storm‐driven currents can carry sand from the shoreline tens of kilometres out onto the
continental shelves where it is moulded by storm waves into a storm‐sand bed showing …

In ancient storm-influenced prograding shoreline sequences, sole marks (mainly tool marks)
from hummocky crossstratified storm deposits are commonly oriented normal to …

The hydrodynamic mechanisms responsible for the genesis and facies variability of shallow‐
marine sandstone storm deposits (tempestites) have been intensely debated, with particular …

A model is developed to explain the wide range of sedimentary structures found in ancient
storm-deposited beds. The model predicts the nature and association of internal …

Hummocky cross-stratification in ancient sedimentary deposits is considered to be
diagnostic of inner shelf storm deposits. Megaripples of 2-5 m spacing are typical responses …

Tempestite beds of the Ordovician Kope Formation of northern Kentucky provide an
interesting subject for numerical simulation and stratigraphic analysis. Taphonomic …

Unidirectional, oscillatory and combined-flow paleocurrent data from many ancient wave-
dominated coastlines indicate that sediment transport was directed offshore at angles of 70 …

Terra Nova, 24, 273–282, 2012 Abstract Hummocky cross‐stratification (HCS) is considered
a diagnostic structure of surface storm activity at the shoreface–offshore transition. However …
