Like its precursor, it describes sediments from sand grains to sedimentary basins. Applied Sedimentology is written principally for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students of earth science and engineering. It may also, however, prove useful to more mature readers who explore and exploit the sedimentary rocks for fossil fuels and mineral deposits."--BOOK JACKET.SedimentologySediments (Geology)Electronic books.Sedimentology.Sediments (Geology)552/.5Selley Richard C.1939-294232MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458241203321Applied sedimentology108837UNINA
