Principles of Sedimentology
Sedimentology, a term proposed in 1932 by H. A. Wadell, is most simply defined as the scientific study of sediments. The term sediment refers to regolith that has been transported. Sediment is a word derived from the Latin sedimentum, which means" a settling." Not stated, but implied in the minds of many users of the term, is the idea that the settling occurred through air or water. As used by some, sedimentology is the scientific study of only modern sediments.
