The field of sedimentology is primarily concerned with the study of sediments and the processes that cause their formation. Sedimentary rocks can be divided into four primary classes, namely carbonates, chemical, clastics and evaporites. Human society has always benefited from the use of sedimentary rocks. They play a crucial role in art and architecture, deriving various building materials, procurement of various precious metals and minerals, and for the generation of energy. Studies in sedimentology involve investigations in sequence stratigraphy, isotope geochemistry, petrology, etc. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of sedimentology. Different approaches, evaluations, methodologies and advanced studies in this field have been included in this book. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.
