GEO X67M GEO 367M  Morphodynamics and Quantitative Stratigraphy  3 Hours

3 Lecture Hours  0 Lab Hours  
Explores development of numerical tools to quantitatively understand sediment transport and stratigraphic development in sedimentary basins. Focus on applications of principles in fluid mechanics, sediment transport, and depositional mechanics to one-dimensional and quasi-two dimensional numerical modeling of sediment morphodynamics in depositional settings such as river deltas, carbonate platforms, and submarine fans. Requires development of geometrical and morphodynamic models as research tools to understand gathered data. Geological Sciences 367M and 371T (Topic: Morphodynamics and Quantitative Stratigraphy) may not both be counted. Three lecture hours per week for one semester.
Pre/Corequisites: Geological Sciences 416M with a grade of at least C-.
