Those islands withstood wave action long enough to become re-buried by other sediments in the Cambrian Period.

The Gour of Tazenat was formed 29,000 years ago at least, when obtained by coring sediments.

This trapped the carbon in immense peat bogs that were eventually covered and deeply buried by sediments.

The natural Rhine originally branched into at least two arms and formed small islands by precipitating sediments.

This outcrop is unconformably overlain by sediments of the Table Mountain group.

Here, a series of patch reefs are developed surrounded by inter-reef sediments (Fig. 8).

With increasing burial by later sediments and increase in temperature, the kerogen within the rock begins to break down.

The portion of the crater where Curiosity will land has an alluvial fan likely formed by water-carried sediments.

Geosystems Department, which studies climate development, especially as revealed by sediments.

Scallops that escape predators and the risk of burial by shifting sediments typically live 18 months, spawning once, sometimes twice.
