Anomalies of lithological parameters
| Grain size parameters of rock debris (phi scale) | Anomalies of lithological parameters | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| confidence interval of the mean | positive anomalies | negative anomalies | |
| mean grain size | 0 | D | R |
| sorting | 0 | R | D |
| skewness | 0 | D | R |
| kurtosis | 0 | R | D |
[i] 0 – lithodynamic equilibrium, D – deposition, R – redeposition
