rétegképzdés
Rétegképzdés, meaning "stratification" in Hungarian, refers to the process by which sedimentary rocks form in distinct layers. These layers, or strata, are a fundamental characteristic of sedimentary deposits and provide invaluable insights into geological history. The formation of these layers is primarily driven by variations in sediment deposition over time. Factors such as changes in sediment supply, the energy of the transporting medium (like water or wind), and the rate of deposition can all influence the nature and thickness of each individual layer.
Different types of sediment, such as sand, silt, clay, or gravel, deposited under varying conditions, will create
The study of rétegképzdés, or stratigraphy, is crucial for understanding the sequence of events in Earth's history.
