Sedimentology Course
Gain essential sedimentology skills for geology and geography: interpret rocks, create stratigraphic logs, analyse depositional settings, and connect facies, sequence stratigraphy, and basin dynamics to practical applications in groundwater, geotechnical, and resource management projects across various terrains.

What will I learn?
This course provides a practical guide to sedimentary rocks, structures, and depositional environments, covering everything from grain properties to basin-scale analysis. You will learn to create stratigraphic logs, interpret facies from images, use sequence stratigraphy basics, and evaluate uncertainties for use in research, mapping, subsurface, and environmental work.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Facies interpretation: analyse tidal, river, delta, and wind-blown depositional systems.
- Stratigraphic logging: produce professional logs quickly from field photos.
- Sedimentary structures: identify cross-beds, ripples, and burrows to understand past flows.
- Grain analysis: evaluate texture, pore space, and source materials for basin history.
- Sequence stratigraphy: connect local logs to changes in sea level, weather, and basin growth.
