Sedimentology Course
Develop essential sedimentology expertise for geology and geography applications: interpret rocks, construct stratigraphic logs, analyse depositional settings, and connect facies, sequence stratigraphy, and basin dynamics to practical decisions in groundwater, geotechnical, and resource management projects across diverse terrains.

What will I learn?
This course offers a practical guide to sedimentary rocks, structures, and depositional environments, covering grain properties to basin-scale analysis. Learners will create stratigraphic logs, interpret facies from images, use sequence stratigraphy basics, and assess uncertainties for immediate application 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.
