Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
It is produced by the exaggeration of the depression as a result of unequal settling and compaction of the overlying material and by the partial sinking of such material into the depression, such as during the onset of deposition of a turbidite on unconsolidated mud. A load cast is more irregular than a flute cast(it is usually not systematically elongated in the current direction), and is characterized by an absence of a distinction between the upcurrent and downcurrent ends. 2, record 4, English, - load%20cast
