Field Notes on Vertical Bedding.
Based on Nicholas hashtagSteno, undisturbed sediments are layered in a horizontal manner under the action of gravity. He proposed this theory as the hashtagPrinciple of hashtagOriginalHorizontality.
Any non-horizontal bedding is an indicative events of hashtagplatetectonic that causes horizontal bedding to be disturbed (fold / fault / tilted)
The Borneo Island, situated in Southeast Asia (SEA), sits on a hashtagtectonically complex region, characterised by multiple arcs and continental blocks accreted during the mid-hashtagPaleozoic to the hashtagCenozoic Era.
