Description

Earth scientists in the field recognize that a sequence of rocks may be missing layers of rocks that represent a period of time.  We call those unconformities.  In this episode, we discuss what an unconformity is and the four main types of unconformities - angular, paraconformity, disconformity, and nonconformity.Don't miss a thing!   Join our email list.Support what I do to help you...Support the show
