  2. Bed (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bed_(geology)

    In geology, a bed is a layer of sediment, sedimentary rock, or volcanic rock "bounded above and below by more or less well-defined bedding surfaces". [1] A bedding surface is three-dimensional surface , planar or curved, that visibly separates each successive bed (of the same or different lithology ) from the preceding or following bed.

    Bedding maintenance is an important part of both human and animal health, cleanliness, and well being. [3] Storage of bedding is important to insure that the bedding does not ruin. The best place to store it is in an environment that is dry and above ground level. Frequent bedding change is important to decrease the amount of bacteria. [3]

    These structures are within sedimentary bedding and can help with the interpretation of depositional environment and paleocurrent directions. They are formed when the sediment is deposited. Cross-bedding Cross-bedding is the layering of beds deposited by wind or water inclined at an angle as much as 35° from the horizontal. [1]

  9. Cross-bedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-bedding

    Bed forms are relatively dynamic sediment storage bodies with response times that are short relative to major changes in flow characteristics. Large scale bed forms are periodic and occur in the channel (scaled to depth). Their presence and morphologic variability have been related to flow strength expressed as mean velocity or shear stress. [2]
