gross depositional environment

causes of transgression and regression

transgression-rise in sea level causes coastline to shift landwards

regression-Stationary sea level, with adequate sediment supply, causes coastline to shift basinwards. Fall in sea level also causes regression, but with more abrupt upwards increase in grain size.
