UPSC notes on Sedimentary Facies and their Analysis
Significance of sedimentary facies. The result of sedimentary facies analysis is the recognition that they help control hydrocarbon accumulation. Sedimentary facies and other lithological characters play a major role in the process. This refers to reservoirs having high permeability and porosity favourable for hydrocarbon accumulation.

Marine-continental transitional sedimentary facies can be divided into various sub-facies (Galloway, 1998;Boggs, 2012; Harraz, 2013). Dong et al. (2021) divide it into five sub-facies: delta ...

Sedimentation – Process, Principle and Types
Sedimentation is the process in which solid particles in a fluid are deposited in a layer or layers on the bottom of the fluid. The particles may be carried to the bottom by the motion of the fluid or by gravity. The speed at which the particles settle depends on their size, shape, and density.

of Sedimentary Basins
1. INTRODUCTION. 1.1 The official definition of a sedimentary basin is: a low area in the Earth's. crust, of tectonic origin, in which sediments accumulate. Sedimentary basins. range in size from as small as hundreds of meters to large parts of ocean basins. The essential element of the concept is tectonic creation of relief, to provide both.

Turbidites and Stratigraphy. Turbidites provide a good summary of the ideas we have been talking about, e.g. facies and sedimentary structures related to flows. Turbidites are deposited from slurries of sediment and water in any standing body of water (lakes, oceans). A description of turbidites as an example of facies.

5.4: Sedimentary Structures
Bedding Planes. Figure 5.4.1 5.4. 1: Horizontal strata in southern Utah. The most basic sedimentary structure is bedding planes, the planes that separate the layers or strata in sedimentary and some volcanic rocks. Visible in exposed outcroppings, each bedding plane indicates a change in sediment deposition conditions.

Sedimentary processes
It is a fundamental principle in sedimentary geology and was first proposed by Charles Lyell in 1830. Using this principle when studying present-day sedimentary environments (e.g. coral reef systems, delta systems, river systems), we can determine fundamental principles such as: rates of sedimentation; geometry of sediment sequences

FORMATION OF SEDIMENTARY ROCKS
The particles that form a sedimentary rock are called sediment, and may be composed of detritus/minerals or biological detritus/organic matter. Thus, sedimentary particles or sediments are building blocks of sedimentary rocks. We can classify sedimentary particles into three groups: 1.
