Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Sedimentology encompasses the study of modern sediments such as sand, mud (silt), and clay, and the processes that result in their deposition. Sedimentologists apply their understanding of modern processes to interpret geologic history through observations of sedimentary rocks and sedimentary structures.Sedimentary rocks cover most of the Earth''s surface, record much of the Earth''s history, and harbor the fossil record. Sedimentology is closely linked to stratigraphy, the study of the physical and temporal relationships between rock layers or strata.
