Hi guys,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the objective of this video is to look at

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
the bedding structures that form
when sediment is deposited.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
These bedding structures all form 
in different environments.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
These environments which create the bedding 
structures will be discussed.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Firstly,
we will talk about the horizontal beds,

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
or strata,
that the sediment is laid down in.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Sedimentary rock is stratafied,
which means that it has layers.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
These layers have formed because sediment 
is laid down in horizontal layers called strata.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
Between each layer of strata,
we have bedding planes.

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And these bedding planes form because 
the region has experienced

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
a change in depositional environment or material.

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

99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999
And then,
a change in depositional environment
