What will I learn?
This course offers a practical guide to sedimentary rocks, structures, and depositional environments, covering grain properties to basin scales. Learners will create stratigraphic logs, analyze facies from images, use sequence stratigraphy basics, and evaluate uncertainties for research, mapping, subsurface, and environmental applications.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Facies analysis: interpret tidal, river, delta, and wind-based deposits.
- Stratigraphic logging: produce professional logs quickly from field images.
- Sedimentary features: analyze cross-bedding, ripples, and burrows for flow conditions.
- Grain analysis: evaluate texture, porosity, and origins for basin understanding.
- Sequence stratigraphy: relate logs to sea-level changes, climate, and basin history.
