Description:
Abstract:
The textbook "Sedimentology - Sedimentary Environments" covers the requirements of both undergraduate and postgraduate courses, providing the background in methodology and knowledge required for a holistic view of Sedimentary Environments, today. The main objective is to introduce, initially, basic concepts of sedimentology. Sedimentary processes as well as the description - analysis of sedimentary environments and facies are covered in more detail through ten chapters. The book concludes with a chapter containing twelve laboratory exercises for students which cover the course material throughout the book.
