GEOL 4515 - Sedimentary Basin Analysis


(3 credits) 3 hours lecture Lecture
This course considers the basin-scale controls on the distribution and architecture of depositional environments in space and time. Case studies investigate different types of basins, from tectonically active rifts, strike-slip basins, and forelands to quiescent intracratonic basins, and focus on the packaging of the sedimentary basin fill. Students develop skill sets in sequence stratigraphy and basin-scale modeling of sedimentary systems.

Prerequisite(s): GEOL 3109  with a minimum grade of C- or higher.
