Stratigraphy is a branch of geology concerned with the study of rock layers (strata) and layering (stratification). It is primarily used in the study of sedimentary and layered volcanic rocks. Stratigraphy has two related subfields: lithostratigraphy (lithologic stratigraphy) and biostratigraphy (biologic stratigraphy).

Answer:
Ocean currents, air currents, rotation of the earth.
Explanation:
ocean currents can effect the temperature of the water. air currents can bring in dry warm air, like over Africa and help warm the sea more, or cooler air from the arctic to help cool the surface water. Many of these effect are driven by the Coriolis Effect.
Answer:
1. Applying <u>the principle of original horizontality</u> -indicates that layers were repositioned from a flat-lying orientation.
2. Magma intrudes into layers of sedimentary rock and displaces them. We can deduce that the intruded magma that crystallizes is younger than the surrounding sedimentary layers by applying <u>the principle of crosscutting relationships</u>.
3. While visiting the Grand Canyon, you are amazed by the depth of layers of sedimentary rock before you, <u>the law of superposition</u>-- is evident here where progressively younger layers have formed over time and are stacked upon each other.
4. A fault cuts through layers of limestone, sandstone, and conglomerate. The surrounding layers must be <u>older</u> than the fault.
5. A mass of granite has inclusions of surrounding sandstone. The sandstone and surrounding layers show evidence of uplift over time. The granite must be <u>younger</u> than the sand deposits.
