GEOL 1020: Sedimentology And Stratigraphy
4.00 Credits
University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus
The lectures focus on the principles of sediment erosion, transport, and deposition, on the erosive forces behind important sedimentary systems (e.g., rivers, deltas, beaches, etc.) and how these systems create distinctive deposits in the geologic record, on stratigraphic principles, and on the development of sedimentary basins. The labs focus on identifying and interpreting sedimentary rocks and structures and on applying the basic methods of stratigraphy to particular problems. Readings and written work will focus on scientifically interesting problems. This course is required for geology majors and is useful for archaeologists, geographers, environmental scientists, land planners, and civil and petroleum engineers. This class meets 1/3 of a CAS "W" (writing) requirement in geology. About 8 to 10 pages of writing and rewriting are required. The other 2/3 of the "W" requirement will be met in GEOL 1003 and GEOL 1100.
