Sedimentology Course
Master key sedimentology skills for geography and geology work: read rocks, log stratigraphy, interpret depositional environments, and link facies, sequence stratigraphy, and basin context to real-world groundwater, geotech, and resource decisions.

What will I learn?
This Sedimentology Course delivers a focused, practical overview of sedimentary rocks, structures, and depositional systems, from grain-scale properties to basin context. Learn to build clear stratigraphic logs, interpret facies from photos, apply basic sequence stratigraphy, and quantify uncertainty. Gain skills you can immediately use in research, mapping, and subsurface or environmental projects.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Facies interpretation: decode tidal, fluvial, deltaic and eolian depositional systems.
- Stratigraphic logging: build clear, professional logs from outcrop photos in hours.
- Sedimentary structures: read cross-beds, ripples, and bioturbation to infer flow.
- Grain-scale analysis: assess texture, porosity, and provenance for basin insights.
- Sequence stratigraphy: link small-scale logs to sea-level, climate, and basin evolution.
