New Layers Squeeze Older Layers
New Layers Squeeze Older Layers is a skill on Pengi from Sesson 1: From Sediment to Layers in Amplify Science (California) Grade 4.
Key Concepts
Sediment deposition is continuous. Over vast periods, new sediment constantly settles on top of older, existing sediment. This creates a vertical stack of many different layers .
As more material piles up on top, the weight increases significantly. This enormous weight from the new, top layers creates immense pressure that pushes down on the bottom layers, driving the process of compaction needed to form rock.
