15. Type of sorting where the roundest, largest, and densest particles settle to the bottom layer while flattest, smallest, and less dense particles make up the top layers.
17. Example: Long Island

1. Type of sorting where the largest, most dense, and roundest particles settle first, closest to the source of water, while the smallest, least dense, and flattest particles are carried farther out into the calm water.
