Environmental Sedimentology provides a
comprehensive introduction to this rapidly expanding field which
addresses the functioning and dynamics of contemporary sediment systems
and how these systems respond to a range of both natural and
anthropogenically-induced disturbance events. The book considers a
variety of sedimentary environments: mountain and upland, fluvial,
lacustrine, arid, urban, deltaic and estuarine, temperate coastal,
tropical coastal, and continental shelf. Each chapter provides an
overview of the main sources and dynamics of sediment production and
accumulation, as well as exploring the impacts of a wide range of
natural and man-made disturbance issues. Aspects of sediment management
and remediation are also considered as are the potential impacts of
on-going and future climatic and environmental change. Environmental
Sedimentology is an invaluable text for advanced level undergraduates in
earth science, environmental science and physical geography, and
graduate students in the earth and environmental sciences with an
interest in contemporary sediment systems.
