  • Glacial sediments from Montana
  • Glacial transport of boulders. These boulders will be deposited as the glacier retreats.

  • Sediment builds up on human-made breakwaters because they reduce the speed of water flow, so the stream cannot carry as much sediment load.

SEQUENCES OF SEDIMENTARY ROCKS THAT ARE CHARACTERISED BY REPETITIVE PATTERNS OF DIFFERENT ROCK TYPES (STRATA) OR FACIES WITHIN THE SEQUENCE
Cyclic sedimentation; Cyclic sediment; Rhythmic sediment; Rhythmic sediments; Depositional cycle
Cyclic sediments (also called rhythmic sediments) are sequences of sedimentary rocks that are characterised by repetitive patterns of different rock types (strata) or facies within the sequence. Processes that generate sedimentary cyclicity can be either autocyclic or allocyclic, and can result in piles of sedimentary cycles hundreds or even thousands of metres thick.
Sediment         
·noun The material of which sedimentary rocks are formed.
II. Sediment ·noun The matter which subsides to the bottom, frrom water or any other liquid; settlings; lees; dregs.
sediment         
(sediments)
Sediment is solid material that settles at the bottom of a liquid, especially earth and pieces of rock that have been carried along and then left somewhere by water, ice, or wind.
Many organisms that die in the sea are soon buried by sediment.

Sediment

Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is subsequently transported by the action of wind, water, or ice or by the force of gravity acting on the particles. For example, sand and silt can be carried in suspension in river water and on reaching the sea bed deposited by sedimentation; if buried, they may eventually become sandstone and siltstone (sedimentary rocks) through lithification.

Sediments are most often transported by water (fluvial processes), but also wind (aeolian processes) and glaciers. Beach sands and river channel deposits are examples of fluvial transport and deposition, though sediment also often settles out of slow-moving or standing water in lakes and oceans. Desert sand dunes and loess are examples of aeolian transport and deposition. Glacial moraine deposits and till are ice-transported sediments.
