GEOS807: Problems in Sedimentary Geology |
A field-based unit for postgraduate palaeobiology students, focused on discrimination of communities (especially reefal situations) in the field mapping of these as parts of sedimentary units, and measurement, collection and logging of stratigraphic sections as a basis for preliminary biozonation on macro faunas preparatory to advanced laboratory work that could form part of dissertations. The areas chosen are those where carbonate sediments and fossil reef structures can be observed and mapped.
