What is a sedimentary environment?

Sedimentary environments are areas of the earth's surface, where sediments can accumulate. Sedimentary environments are classified as continental, marine or transitional. In these areas, the sediments are deposited, beginning the lithification or diagenesis, by which they are transformed into sedimentary rocks.
