资源简介:
Looking down on a rocky shore platform at Uruti Point, Wairarapa, New Zealand. These rocks are 10 million year old layers of sand & mud, called Turbidites. They are formed by submarine sediment settling out from underwater avalanches. After these layers of rock were formed they were buried and became faulted, folded, and tilted by ancient tectonic forces. Modern tectonic processes have uplifted and exposed these rocks to the ocean, which has eroded them into the shore platform we see today. Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab
