Nature of the sedimentary rock record and its implications for Earth system evolution.

Emerging Topics in Life Sciences, 2018
The sedimentary rock reservoir both records and influences changes in Earth's surface environment. Geoscientists extract data from the rock record to constrain long-term environmental, climatic and biological evolution, with the understanding that ...

Sedimentary Rocks

2014
Sediments and sedimentary rocks form under natural process of physical, chemical and biological weathering of igneous, metamorphic and old sedimentary rocks. The mechanisms involve transpiration, deposition, compaction, lithification and/or diagnosis.

Evolution of Sedimentary Rocks

2003
For almost a century, it has been recognized that the present-day thickness and areal extent of Phanerozoic sedimentary strata increase progressively with decreasing geologic age. This pattern has been interpreted either as reflecting an increase in the rate of sedimentation toward the present or as resulting from better preservation of the younger ...
