nondeposition

In some places, rocks from the system are absent entirely due to nondeposition or later erosion.

The essential cause of the disease appears to be the nondeposition of earthy salts in the osteoid tissues.

The infamous "Lipalian interval" was Walcott's name for this time of Precambrian nondeposition.

However, Suwannee Limestone is not present on an area known as Orange Island on the eastern side of the Ocala Platform due to erosion, nondeposition or both.
