Sedimentology: Recent Developments and Applied Aspects

Although the seeds of modern sedimentology were sown some time ago, the events that have taken place during the 1980s and 90s have led to astonishing progress. This volume reflects some of the important developments which have occurred during this time. Contributed to by leading British sedimentologists, it also identifies outstanding problems which are the concern of sedimentologists today and helps to define the path into the future. This book provides information for both the active postgraduate sedimentologist and the interested undergraduate.
