...Henry William Menard Abstract Submarine photography reveals that ripple marks are common in deep water in the sea. Current ripple marks have been found at a depth of 792 feet, and ripple marks which appear to be due to oscillation have been found at 4,500 feet. Water movement competent to move...

...Henry William Menard Abstract Experiments in flumes indicate that the type of movement on a bed of sand may be correlated with mean current velocity. The bottom conditions to be expected if a given current acts on a sand of a given grain size in shallow water are shown in graphic form...

...Henry William Menard Abstract Bubbles adhere to sediment in water and facilitate its transportation both in suspension and as bed-load. The physical limitations on the formation of bubble-grain agglomerates are analysed, and natural environments favorable for their occurrence are discussed...

...Henry William Menard Abstract A method is offered for synthesizing sand mixtures with a normal probability size-frequency distribution, and any desired mean and sorting. Tables and a graph permit rapid use of the method for certain phi standard deviations and for any phi mean diameter. Graphical...

Numerous sketches and drawings of fossil remains, prepared in the 19th century, illustrate this publication, and portraits appear of such stalwarts as Mary Anning (1799-1847), Henry T. De la Beche (1796-1855), and William Daniel...
