Blackwell Scientific publications, 1988, p. 394.
The techniques available for the study of sediments and sedimentary
rocks form the focus of this book. While field aspects are
included, greater emphasis is placed on the laboratory examination
of sediments. Each chapter provides introductory background
material and then proceeds to a discussion of technique, the
equipment, and its limitations. A concluding section includes
examples of how the techniques can be used to solve
sedimentological problems. Techniques in Sedimentology will be an
unrivalled textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students and
of great use to many other geologists.

Blackwell Scientific publications, 1992, p.473. This third volume in the IAS Reprint Series reviews some of the major contributions that have been made over the last twenty years to our understanding of deep water environments. Few groups of rocks have received as much attention in recent years as deep sea sands and yet retained so many unsolved problems - How far and how fast can sediment debris flows travel? Do the many ancient series that have...

Schlager W. Carbonate Sedimentology and Sequence Stratigraphy
Society for Sedimentary Geology, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74235, U.S.A. , 2005, p. 208 Sedimentology and stratigraphy are neighbors yet distinctly separate entities within the earth sciences. Put in a nutshell, sedimentology searches for the common traits of sedimentary rocks regardless of age as it reconstructs environments and processes of deposition and erosion from the sediment record. Stratigraphy, by contrast, concentrates on changes with time, on...

Selley R.C. Applied Sedimentology
Academic Press, 2 edition, 2000, 523 Pages, ISBN: 0126363757. There are three types of rock-igneous, 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-depositional processes that change soft sediment into sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rocks include sandstones, limest...

Blackwell Science Ltd. , 2002. p.482. Carbonate rocks (limestones and dolomites) constitute a major part of the geological column and contain not only 60% of the world's known hydrocarbons but also host extensive mineral deposits. This book represents the first major review of carbonate sedimentology since the mid 1970's. It is aimed at the advanced undergraduate - postgraduate level and will also be of major interest to geologists working in th...
