Geology of Turkey

This years field course was to Turkey to see the channel architecture of marine turbidite deposits.  I look forward every year to going into the field to continue learning about geology and this years topic of depositional environments.  This particular course has allowed me to do a better job visualizing what my reservoir would look like in a 3 dimensional view but 13000 ft below the surface of the ocean floor.
