Sedimentology A Study of Sedimentary Rocks and Structures [Hardcover]

Sedimentology studies the formation of sand, clay and silt. There are mainly four types of sedimentary rocks-clastic rocks, evaporites, chemical sedimentary rocks and carbonates. Sedimentary rocks provide incredible insights into the geologic history of the Earth. Most of the topics introduced in this book cover new techniques and the applications of sedimentology. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. This book will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this branch.Sedimentology studies the formation of sand, clay and silt.
