I'm using "Sedimentology and Stratigraphy" by Gary Nichols and "The Sedimentary Record of Sea-Level Change" edited by Angela Coe. Sam Boggs just came out with a new edition of "Principles of Sedimentology and Stratigraphy" that I'm using as a reserved alternate text. Nichols is better at the non-mathematical topics and Boggs fills in these gaps nicely. The book edited by Coe is by far the best introduction to sequence stratigraphy (for neophytes) yet published. -- Tim Demko tdemko@umn.edu Assistant Professor Department of Geological Sciences University of Minnesota Duluth 217 Heller Hall 1114 Kirby Drive Duluth, MN 55812 Voice: (218)726-8340 Fax: (218)726-8275 http://umn.edu/home/tdemko On May 2, 2006, at 5:00 PM, Roy Plotnick wrote: > I am looking for recommendations for modern stratigraphy/ > sedimentology/basin analysis books at the introductory > undergraduate level.
