Sédimentologie 2 et anglais de spécialité
Licence Sciences de la Terre Parcours Sciences de la Terre, de l'Univers et de l'environnement
Description
Objectif de l'UE
The objective of this discipline is for the students to build on the facies and facies associations knowledge gained in Sedimentology 1, improve their knowledge on architectural elements, and to have some notions of depositional environments and basic sequence stratigraphy.
Additionally, classification of sedimentary rocks under the microscope will also be taught during this course, and potentially be shown in the practicals.
