The MS degree program consists of twenty hours of course work see below in Geology and allied departments e.g. Watershed Sciences; Plants Soils and Biometeorology.
Alan V. Morgan In the last issue of Wat On Earth I covered the classification of igneous or fire-formed rocks. In this issue I would like to explore the topic of sedimentary rocks.
Sedimentary Rocks. Rivers oceans winds and rain runoff all have the ability to carry the particles washed off of eroding rocks. Such material called detritus consists of fragments of rocks and minerals.When the energy of the transporting current is not strong enough to carry these particles the particles drop out in the process of sedimentation.

95 of all sedimentary rocks consists of sandstones made up of sand sized fragments mudrocks made up of silt and clay sized fragments and carbonate rocks made up of mostly calcite aragonite or dolomite. Of these the mudrocks are most abundant making up about 65 of all sedimentary rocks.
Lesson 1.4 Sedimentary Rock Formation 👉Teacher action Read aloud page 14 in the notebook Making Inferences About How Rocks Form. On-the-Fly Assessment How Sedimentary Rocks Form Students write about how sedimentary rocks form. As students write circulate and make note of their understanding of how sedimentary rocks form.
Chemical Sedimentary Rocks • During weathering minerals can be dissolved and carried into lakes and oceans. As water evaporates the dissolved minerals are left behind. • Crystal grains precipitate out of solution and settle on the bottom. As a result layers of chemical sedimentary rocks form most which are called evaporates. • Evaporites crystals form from evaporating water Examples.
