Ripple marks as Indicators of Late Ordovician Sedimentary Environments in Northwest Estonia
Lainevired kui Hilis-Ordoviitsiumi keskkonnatingimuste indikaatorid Loode-Eestis
並列摘要
Late Ordovician sedimentary environments promoting the development of ripple marks in shallow shelf carbonate deposits of northern Estonia are analysed. Ripple marks are described using different parameters (wavelength, height, and wave and asymmetry indexes). Rippled bedding is exposed in a large area in the uppermost Keila Stage, on the upper boundary of micritic-peloidal limestones (Pääsküla Member of the Kahula Formation). Beds with ripples are overlain by organodetrital limestones (Saue Member of the Kahula Formation) transitional to grainstones or mud mounds of the Vasalemma Formation. The content of peloids in the Pääsküla Member is relatively high and their size (0.04-0.06mm) corresponds to the grain size of sediments capable of forming ripple marks. Weakly asymmetrical sinusoidal ripple marks are oriented in a north-south direction and have likely been formed in the shallow-water zone of the shoal at some distance from the shore. The wave-current origin of the studied ripples can be inferred from ripple indexes. Ripples were subjected to some erosion and in the shallowing-upwards conditions a rocky bottom with the Trypanites ichnofacies evolved. The rippled surface terminates a small-scale cycle (parasequence) of the depositional sequence.
