地层在地质学上指有一定层位的一层或一组岩石或土壤,上下层位之间被明显的层面或沉积间断面分开,地层分布范围可广达几十万平方千米,在悬崖峭壁、河岸或修建公路时开挖的地段,地层可能会暴露出,显示不同颜色或不同构造的层理,各层的厚度也不同,有的只有几毫米厚,有的可厚达几千米。各层的岩性、所含有的化石、矿物,以及其物理、化学成分都可能有明显的差异。根据其不同的岩性、化石等将其划分为不同的地层单位,研究地层的学科为地层学,是考古和研究地史的基础,也为勘探和找矿提供重要线索。

任何成层地层的串行,不论是沉积岩、喷出岩,只要不发生地层倒转、逆掩断层,总是先形成的在下、年代较老,后形成的在上、年代较新。若表现为地层之间的不集成或假集成,原因或是该地区未曾有过该地层的沉积,或者更可能是该地层沉积后,在上覆地层尚未沉积时就已被剥蚀。
