carbonate rosk mass/stratum (см. ниже различия между layer, bed, stratum)

Между 3 терминами - легкая грань. Очень часто они взаимупотребимы и заменимы. Но вот различия:
layer = слой, пласт (как наслоение горной породы)
bed = слой, пласт (как фундамент)
stratum = слой, пласт (как отложение, толща)

We'll say that this bed formed when the area was under the ocean.

Acording to the Russian Stratigraphic Classification and Terminology and two-volume Geological Dictionary:
Tolshcha - "group of strata" is an aggregate of sedimentary, extrusive, or metamorphic formations, or combination of them, which is characterized by some common features in lithology of the rocks or in character of their alternation.
Personally, I've used "strata" for decades with infrequent exceptions.
