Q
What is Frey saying in his 1990 paper about Ichnofacies?
A
That the location of the ichnofacies on a shore does not depend on water depth. It depends on factors like substrate consistency, hydraulic energy, rates of deposition, turbidity, oxygen and salinity levels, toxic substances, availability of food, and the “prowess” of the organisms making the trace fossils.
