Sedimentology involves interpreting sediments and rocks in terms of transport and deposition processes, distribution in space and time. Field studies require basic equipment like a notebook, hand lens, compass, clinometer, hammer, and GPS. Palaeocurrent indicators provide evidence of flow direction

Sedimentology is the study of modern sediments like sand, mud, and clay, along with the processes involved in their deposition. Sedimentologists use this knowledge to interpret Earth's geologic history through sedimentary rocks and structures. Sediment plays a crucial role in enriching soil with nut

Paleoecology studies the interactions between life and non-living factors in environments over millions of years. Scientists reconstruct ancient environments using paleontology, sedimentology, and chemistry. Foraminifera, single-celled organisms with calcium carbonate shells, are valuable index foss
