Emilia Jarochowska

Criterion and weight	Sufficient 50%	Good 75%	Excellent 100%
Depositional environments 20%	At least ½ of environments are recognized correctly.	2/3 of the environments are recognized correctly and spatial scales are recorded in the model.	>2/3 of environments are recognized correctly and and spatial scales and the influence of wind direction are recorded in the model.
Sample description and interpretation 50%	At least ½ of samples are described correctly (identification of major grain types, use of Dunham classification) with basic interpretation.	>½ samples are described correctly: identification of major grain types use of Dunham classification description of sorting and sedimentary structures when applicable. The environmental interpretation links the description to environments recognized on the satellite images.	>2/3 of samples are described correctly: identification of major grain types identification of major groups or organisms use of Dunham classification description of sorting and sedimentary structures when applicable. The environmental interpretation links the description to environments recognized on the satellite images and other environmental parameters
Facies model 30%	The model shows most of the environments recognized in the satellite images. The labels are clear.	The model shows most of the environments recognized in the satellite images and their relative positions with respect to each other and the sea level. The labels are clear. Positions of samples described in the practical are marked.	The model captures the spatial diversity and scale of main environments of a carbonate platforms as studied in the Bahamas. The labels are clear. Positions of samples described in the practical are marked.
