Log Mats
In this video, Richard introduces an article by Michael Oard on the subject of log mats. A log mat is a phenomenon that can occur as result of a major catastrophe (e.g. the eruption of Mount St Helens in 1980) in which a large number of trees are uprooted and moved to form a large floating ‘mat’ on water. This is something that could have easily happened during a global flood, and as such, offers a good explanation to a number of findings that occur within sedimetary rock layers.
