Sole marks - evidence about past environments

What evidence does the bottom of a sedimentary bed give you about the palaeoenvironment? To find out try the ELI 'Sedimentary structures - sole marks'

This activity is part of a series on sedimentary structures and the ways in which
they can be used to interpret past conditions. This ELI is based on diagrams and
photographs of sole marks.
The rest of the series can be found on our website in the index under 'Sedimentary structures':-
