Learning outcomes

Provide the students the tools and concepts to understand the dynamics of sedimentary processes in continental-coastal and deep marine depositional environments. Be able to describe in the field a sedimentary succession in a rational way and to represent it through a stratigraphic log. Understand the physical processes acting in their formation to infer the depositional environment. Acquire an adequate technical language in order to communicate with experts in the field.
