Abstract

The purpose of this ph.D. study is to analyze quantitatively the dynamics of tidal sedimentation and to apply the results to ancient tidal deposits. Three aspects will be discussed in this study. Part 1 (Chapters 2 and 4) examines two basic problems of fluid and sediment movement. The application of these methods leads to the reconstruction of palaeotidal hydrodynamic conditions from ancient deposits (Part 2, Chapter 3) and the identification, interpretation and prediction of tidal deposits in modern and ancient tidal environments (Part 3, Chapters 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8)
