Hi guys,

2
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the objective of this video is to look at

3
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the bedding structures that form
when sediment is deposited.

4
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
These bedding structures all form 
in different environments.

5
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
These environments which create the bedding 
structures will be discussed.

6
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Firstly,
we will talk about the horizontal beds,

7
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
or strata,
that the sediment is laid down in.

8
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Sedimentary rock is stratafied,
which means that it has layers.

9
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
These layers have formed because sediment 
is laid down in horizontal layers called strata.

10
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Between each layer of strata,
we have bedding planes.

11
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And these bedding planes form because 
the region has experienced

12
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
a change in depositional environment or material.

13
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We can see here in this photo that we have 
had one type of sediment laid down

14
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And then,
a change in depositional environment
