It covers the processes of formation, transport, and deposition of sediments and applies them to the development of conceptual models for all sedimentary environments—from deserts to the deep sea and reefs to rivers. For a comprehensive overview of all aspects of sedimentology and stratigraphy, various approaches to using stratigraphic principles in dating and correlating layers are also considered. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The 3rd edition has been thoroughly revised and updated. The chapter structure has been changed to include separate sections on geomorphology and stratigraphy for each sedimentary environment. In addition, the new edition contains additional color illustrations. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The essential concepts introduced in Sedimentology and Stratigraphy include, among others: \u003cbr\u003e * The importance of changes in flora and fauna over time and the effects on the characteristics of the marine and terrestrial sedimentary environment\u003cbr\u003e * The distinction between modern environments and what has been preserved in the sedimentary sequences, with a consideration of glacio-erosional and depositional landforms\u003cbr\u003e * Modern desert environments and aeolian deposits in the stratigraphic sequence\u003cbr\u003e * Fluvial processes with patterns of tributary and distributary channels of different magnitudes and in various environments \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The work Sedimentology and Stratigraphy was written by a knowledgeable author with extensive experience in the field. It is an easily understandable textbook for students of geology and related fields who wish to acquire knowledge about the formation, properties, and significance of sedimentary rocks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15557432\"\u003eGary Nichols\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/06\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 7.00w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781119417286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1119417287\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-SCI\"\u003eScience\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-SCI031000\"\u003eEarth Sciences | Geology\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGary Nichols\u003c\/b\u003e has taught sedimentology and stratigraphy at universities in the UK and Norway.
