MODELING LAYERS

The sedimentation process has a tendency towards randomness as well as blockiness. A Markov chain can be a good stochastic model to simulate these features. The merit of the model is its simplicity, for the layers of M states, it can be described only by M parameters(Godfrey et al., 1980).
