If you observe a disconformity, you would infer that the region had experienced ________.
◦ deposition in shallow water, uplift or lowering of sea level enough to expose the rocks to erosion and non-deposition for a period of time, and subsequent resubmergence of the remaining sedimentary units where they experience new deposition
◦ intrusion of igneous rocks into a depositional setting, forcing the sedimentary layers upward and possibly deforming them, followed by subsidence of the remaining sedimentary layers and renewed deposition
◦ uplift and tilting of sedimentary units that exposes them to erosion over a period of time with subsequent renewed deposition
◦ deposition of sedimentary layers on crystalline igneous or metamorphic rocks that are exposed at the surface of the earth
