The sun affects the earth by its gravity, which keeps earth in orbit, and by raising tides in the rocky and watery components of the earth. And on the obvious side, it keeps the earth from becoming cold at times.

sediment layers stop spreading when they reach a barrier or they run out of sedimentary material. lateral spreading is the movement of gently to steeply sloping, saturated soil deposits caused by earthquake-induced liquefaction. i hope this . : )
