Abstract
Lake paleoenvironmental signatures, as discussed by John Whitmore, are equivocal and thus cannot be considered as valuable as the geomorphological evidences. The exploded fish and caddis fly burrows are challenging to a Flood interpretation, however, other features of the fossil fish and caddis fly burrows are anomalous for a post-Flood lake. An early Flood timing can explain many of the features interpreted to be from a post-Flood setting, such as bird and mammal tracks, raindrop impressions, and mudcracks. Furthermore a case can be made for the inorganic deposition of 'stromatolites', and 'evaporites' claimed in the Green River Formation (GRF) have anomalous features for a post-Flood lake. A Flood model can explain the deposition and features of the GRF.
