Khaleel Rahman K. TThis course will give a basic idea of the sediments and its trasportation. Sir is taking class very slowly so anyone could understand each and every point he is explaining. one thing is that the level of this course is school level. Actually i am college student , but i listened to this class only to just brush up the basics of sediment transport. It would be nice if you include the topic of sedimentary depositional environment too.
