Sentence examples for sediments hard from inspiring English sources
While CRUST 2.0 provides the heights/depths of seven layers comprising ice, water, soft sediments, hard sediments, upper crust, middle crust and lower crust, we only use the depths of the Moho.
At the bottom, some cut up to 600 feet into seabed ooze, enough to distinguish soft sediments from hard rock.
They are often more severe on soft alluvium and unconsolidated sediments than on hard rock.
Hard sediments or rocks experience lower shaking intensity, but the shaking can be felt at much larger distances from the epicenter.
In relation to the long-term sediment budget and longshore drift pattern, the long-term trend of the USU volume distribution displays strong spatio-temporal contrasts linked to longshore sediment drift, spatial distribution of fluvial sediment inputs and hard engineering structures.
A large relative height of hard sediment layer indicates poor stability of the PCWS.
The relative height of the hard sediment layer can be obtained by calculation, which is an index to evaluate slurry stability.
It can be seen that both the relative height of hard sediment layer and the separated water rate decreased first and then increased with increasing pH, and the smallest relative height of hard sediment layer and the smallest separated water rate both appeared at a pH of 9.
The PCWSs with LS or PS additives even did not produce hard sediment at pH of 9, as shown in Fig. 5a, indicating that a pH of around 9 was the most favorable acid alkali environment to strengthen stability of PCWS.

L. littorea has been shown to fundamentally change North Atlantic intertidal ecosystems via grazing activities, altering the distribution and abundance of algae on rocky shores and converting soft-sediment habitats to hard substrates [17], [18], as well as competitively displacing some native species [19], [20].
