Sedimentology Course
Develop essential sedimentology skills for geology and geography applications: interpret rocks and depositional environments, construct stratigraphic logs, analyse sedimentary structures, and connect facies, sequence stratigraphy, and basin dynamics to decisions in groundwater, geotechnical, and resource management projects.

What will I learn?
This course offers a practical overview of sedimentary rocks, structures, and depositional systems, covering grain-scale features to basin-scale contexts. Participants will learn to create stratigraphic logs, interpret facies from images, apply sequence stratigraphy basics, and assess uncertainties for use in research, mapping, subsurface, and environmental work.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Facies interpretation: analyse tidal, fluvial, deltaic, and aeolian systems.
- Stratigraphic logging: produce professional logs from outcrop images quickly.
- Sedimentary structures: interpret cross-beds, ripples, and bioturbation for flow conditions.
- Grain-scale analysis: evaluate texture, porosity, and provenance for basin understanding.
- Sequence stratigraphy: correlate logs with sea-level changes, climate, and basin development.
