Product Description
Review
"...definitely one of the best summaries and best written statements on the subject available today.... Every sedimentologist, stratigrapher, sedimentary petrologist and earth resources geologist should have a copy in their personal library." (Journal of Sedimentary Petrology)
Product Description
Sedimentary Environments is one of the most distinguished and influential textbooks in the earth sciences published in the last 20 years. The first and second editions both won universal praise and became classic works in sedimentology. Since the publication of the last edition, the study of sedimentary environments and facies has made great strides, with major advances in facies modelling, sequence stratigraphy and basin modelling. The 3rd edition of this classic text will likely set the benchmark even higher, and needless to say, will continue being the textbook of choice for sedimentology students.
- The latest edition of a classic text.
- Incorporates all the latest advances in dynamic stratigraphy.
- Will remain the textbook of choice for upper level undergraduate and graduate students in sedimentology.

Format:Paperback
This book is not for the faint hearted Sedimentology student, it is densely packed with information and perfect for those who have a basic foundation in Sedimentology and wants more detailed knowledge. It has a much better section on carbonate sedimentology than Boggs which severely under provides in this topic. An excellent resource for those who already have the foundational knowledge.

Format:Paperback
Apsoultly brilliant book for sedimentolgists, packed full of seperate depositional environemts and facies analysis. This book affers a wealth of knowledege from evaporitic structures to deep sea pelagic deposition.
Reading has created a brilliant source book for undergraduates, postgraduates and others which can be used to study the primary stratigraphic principles to the understanding how different depositional settings lead to seperate geological features. The book lists all the main environments giving detailed analysis of the features involved.
This book is essential reading from the beginnings of sedimentology to industry geology, where even as a resource this book is an essential.
