The case for Flood deposition of the Green River Formation
Oard, MJ. 2006.  JC 20(1):50-54. CELD ID 18667

Abstract
The Green River Formation (GRF) is a controversial formation within creationist earth science. Evolutionary geologists see the GRF as a sequence of about six million varves deposited with other associated formations over a few tens of millions of years of geological time. Furthermore, these geologists also 'find' Milankovitch and sunspot cycles in the 'varves'. A number of creation geologists have found evidence that has convinced them the GRF formed in a post-Flood lake. The several times I have examined the GRF from a geomorphological point of view, I have come to the conclusion that it was formed during the Flood.
