Camased is representing Cameroon geoscientists in the field of Sedimentology and associated disciplines which main objective is promotion of local scientists. It encourages national collaboration between local scientists and establish international co-operation and participation in the Earth sciences organizations with international Experts. Membership is open to all universities staff, students and national scientist whose work is related to the relevant field.
CAMASED
The Camased is the Cameroon association of Sedimentologist. This association is a non profit organisation that deals with research in Geology among research institutes and higher educations researchers. The Camased cut across a large variety of research topics within the field of Sedimentologist such as sedimentary petrology, paleoclimatic and paleoenviromental studies, Basin analyses, sedimentary ore deposits, Petroleum Geology, sedimentary geochemistry, alluvial mineral exploration, and heavy metal concentration in sediments.
Hidden Stories in Every Layer: Sediments hold a wealth of information about past environments, from the tiniest grains to the composition of minerals. By analyzing their textures, structures, and chemical signatures, we can decode the stories of ancient oceans, rivers, deserts, and glaciers that shaped our planet.
Unveiling Nature’s Signature: By studying sedimentary structures such as bedding planes, cross-bedding, ripple marks, and mud cracks, we can decipher the forces of wind, water, and tides that shaped landscapes, unraveling the intricate signatures left behind by nature’s geological processes.
Tracing Ancient Landscapes: Through sequence stratigraphy, we can reconstruct past environments, identify depositional sequences, and unravel the geological evolution of basins, offering insights into the shifting dynamics of ancient oceans, coastlines, and landscapes.
