When sedimentary beds are tilted and exposed to the surface, erosion and weathering may occur differentially based on the composition.

The crater was then buried by additional sedimentary beds that have accumulated during the 35 million years following the impact.

It provided for the geologist one of the few sections seen in sedimentary beds.

Also sedimentary beds may pinch out along strike, implying that slight angles existed during their deposition.

The clues to its ancient origins lie somewhere at the base of the canyon in a huge sedimentary bed called the Monterey Fan.

Dip - The angle between a planar feature, such as a sedimentary bed or a fault, and the horizontal plane.
