... and mudrocks. Despite years of study, the development of Cincinnatian shell beds and metre-scale cycles has, until recently, been attributed solely to storm reworking. This “storm-winnowing model” treats shells as passive sedimentary clasts, ignoring other factors of shell-bed development. A recently proposed...

... movements were monitored using a new digital photographic and image analysis method that allows detection of mo-tions over periods as small as 0.04 s. The results show that, where flows are capable of moving only the finer material, grain size of the matrix is controlled by a combination of winnowing...

...W. L. Prell Abstract Sediments of the Colombia Basin, Caribbean Sea, contain evidence of current winnowing. Although bottom photographs reveal a relatively tranquil bottom over most of the basin, current smoothing of the seafloor is observed on and adjacent to the Hess and Beata Escarpments...

... currents, which winnow away the fines of turbidites. In the rock record, the occurrence of most turbidites and winnowed turbidites closely corresponds to global lowstands of paleo–sea level. This observation may be useful in predicting the occurrence of deep-sea reservoir facies in the geologic record...

Processes implied in the reworking of phosphorite. A. Winnowing of in situ authigenic francolite peloids in pristine phosphorite (buff) by storm waves produces a granular phosphatic lag (yellow). Pristine phosphorite forms during fair-weather periods and is hydraulically concentrated during storms. B. Transport and redeposition of francolite peloids during the largest storms produces granular phosphatic tempestites. Beds may be massive, indistinctly stratified, graded, or hummocky cross stratified. See text for discussion. C. Increasing storm frequency and intensity with time erode pristine phosphorite to produce a thick, amalgamated granular phosphorite bed. These stratiform ore deposits are primary exploration targets. After Pufahl et al. (2003), which expands on concepts developed by Föllmi et al. (1991), Grimm and Föllmi (1994), and Grimm (2000).

... analysis, E-log correlation patterns, and seismic data, these sand bodies are interpreted as original deep-sea fan sediments that were extensively winnowed by bottom currents. Indirect evidence for such an interpretation is given by the complete absence of thin-bedded and fine-grained turbidite sediments...

Fig. 16. Partially Winnowed packstones. Like unwinnowed packstones above, the lower part or more than one subunit of these specimens lacks sedimentary structures diagnostic of winnowing. The fact that parts of the same specimens are winnowed is strong evidence that storm winnowing had an effect

—Presence or absence of glauconite and carbonaceous detritus divide sands into four main genetic groups: marine winnowed sands; nonmarine winnowed sands (often eolian); mixed sands with both glauconite and carbonaceous detritus, common as turbidites; and poorly winnowed nonmarine sandstones.

Test for the stability of the machine‐learning algorithm with a less winnowed data set in Table 1. We selected 35 positive examples (white) of earthquakes that include earthquake signals as well as relatively strong noise signals in the surface‐wave window and 35 negative examples (black) that do not include earthquake signals but have high‐SNR due to strong noise signals in the surface‐wave window. The accuracy of the machine‐learning algorithm is 92.9% and the SNR is 78.6%, and seismograms are shown in Figure S4.
