This two-day course is an introduction to the interpretation of siliciclastic depositional environments with a focus on subsurface data sets, and how to use that information to make predictions. Settings that will be covered include alluvial (meandering rivers, etc., and paleosols), coastal (wave-, fluvial- and tide-dominated), estuarine incised valley fills, deepwater fans (channel fills, levees, lobes), and contourites. Data sets will include outcrop photo pans, well logs, and high-resolution, large format core photos. This course is intended to provide a basic introduction to these settings over the course of two days.
