Cyclic sediments: Cyclic sediments (also called rhythmic sediments) are sequences of sedimentary rocks that are characterised by repetitive patterns of different rock types (strata) or facies within the sequence. Processes that generate sedimentary cyclicity can be either autocyclic or allocyclic, and can ... (Earth) [100%] 2024-01-06 [Sedimentology] [Stratigraphy]...

Exposed riverine sediments: Exposed riverine sediments, or ERS, are composed of silt, sand and gravel deposited by streams but exposed as water level falls. Other terms for ERS include river shingle, point bars, berms and shoals and they are most common in actively ...

Sediment: Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is subsequently transported by the action of wind, water, or ice or by the force of gravity acting on the particles. For example ... (Earth) [96%] 2023-11-04 [Sediments] [Sedimentology]...
Sediment: Sediment is eroded material deposited on the Earth by water, ice, or air. Sediments are found in a wider variety of settings: from desert dunes, river deltas, mountain ranges, and even the deep sea floor. [96%] 2023-03-07 [Earth Sciences] [Soil]...
Sediment: Sediment is any particulate matter that can be transported by fluid flow and which eventually is deposited as a layer of solid particles on the bed or bottom of a body of water or other liquid. Sedimentation is the deposition ... [96%] 2024-01-14 [Environmental soil science] [Petrology]...
Sediment: Sediment is any particulate matter that is transported by the flow of fluids (such as water and air) and eventually deposited in a layer of solid particles. The process of deposition by settling of a suspended material is called sedimentation ... [96%] 2023-02-04
Sediment trap: Sediment traps are instruments used in oceanography and limnology to measure the quantity of sinking particulate organic (and inorganic) material in aquatic systems, usually oceans, lakes, or reservoirs. This flux of material is the product of biological and ecological processes ... (Earth) [68%] 2022-10-02 [Oceanographic instrumentation]
Sediment transport: Sediment transport is the movement of solid particles (sediment), typically due to a combination of gravity acting on the sediment, and/or the movement of the fluid in which the sediment is entrained. Sediment transport occurs in natural systems where ... (Physics) [68%] 2023-10-21 [Fluid mechanics] [Sedimentology]...
Sediment control: A sediment control is a practice or device designed to keep eroded soil on a construction site, so that it does not wash off and cause water pollution to a nearby stream, river, lake, or sea. Sediment controls are usually ... (Earth) [68%] 2023-09-15 [Environmental soil science]
