This book, dedicated to carbonate rocks, approaches sequence stratigraphy from its sedimentologic background. It attempts to communicate by combining different specialities and different lines of reasoning, and by searching for principles underlying the bewildering diversity of …
The computer modelling forming the basis for this publication relates the geometry of cross-bedding to the morphology and behaviour of bedforms. Using computers for this purpose is necessary only because sedimentologists cannot adequately visualize the geometry arising when comp…
Review: "This is a completely revised edition of Applied Sedimentology, first published in 1988. Like its precursor, it describes sediments from sand grains to sedimentary basins. Applied Sedimentology is written principally for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students of …

There are three types of rockigneous, metamorphic and sedimentary. Sedimentary rocks form from the weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition of older rocks. Applied Sedimentology describes the formation, transportation and deposition of sediment, and the post-deposition…
