• Eventually they deposit most of their sediment in the oceans .
  最后把它们搬运的大部分沉积物沉积在海洋里。
• The supply of sediment is insufficient to offset the rate of subsidence .
  沉积物的补给不足以抵偿沉降的速率。
• When deposited, 70-80% of the volume of muddy sediments may be water .
  泥质沉积物沉积后，体积的70-80是水。
• Oligocene erosion had truncated the sediments draped over the dome .
  覆盖于穹丘上的沉积岩为渐新世侵蚀所截削。
• The coarse sediments have generally accumulated along the continental margins .
  粗粒沉积物一般沿大陆边缘堆积。
• The size of a sediment particle alone is usually not sufficient to describe it .
  单颗泥沙的粒径通常不足以描述其性质。
• They can also be transmitted through thick deposits of unconsolidated sediments .
  它们也可能通过未固结沉积物的沉积层。
• Coastal deposits are those sediments deposited at or near sea level .
  沿海沉积物是沉积在海平面或接近于海平面处的沉积物。
• Vast quantities of soil reach the gulf of mexico to become ocean sediment .
  有大量的泥沙到达墨西哥湾，变成了海洋沉积物。
• This sediment will then probably be formed into a folded and imbricated structure .
  然后这些沉积物可能形成褶皱和叠瓦构造。
