New Insights into Coastal Processes from the Sedimentological Record

Explore new insights into coastal processes through four presentations on sedimentological records. Learn about marine transgression signatures in lithified coastal dune morphology, reef island formation processes in Southeast Asia during Holocene sea-level fluctuations, lower coastal plain coals and prograding shorelines in the Paleocene Gippsland Basin, and the role of the shelf in shaping sedimentary systems using quantitative statistical analyses. Gain valuable knowledge on topics such as the Gibson Basin, postrift stratigraphy, electrolithography, seismic faces, and depositional models. Discover the importance of cores, dunes, slope angles, and sinuosity in understanding coastal processes. Engage with case studies and participate in Q&A sessions to deepen your understanding of these complex geological phenomena.
