Biogenic Sedimentation

Biogenic Sedimentation is a mode of marine sedimentation in which sediments are produced, transported, and accumulated primarily as particulate material derived directly from biological activity—such as the skeletal remains, shells, tests, and other hard parts of organisms—that settle through the water column to form biogenic deposits on the seafloor.
