What Will I Learn?
Gain practical expertise in interpreting sedimentary sequences confidently. Master reading facies using grain size, sedimentary structures, and fossils. Apply sequence stratigraphy and biostratigraphy principles to construct composite columns. Hone skills in correlating strata, handling uncertainties with field and subsurface data, and planning effective field campaigns for accurate stratigraphic analysis.
