Cap rock efficiency of geothermal systems in fold-and-thrust belts: Evidence from paleo-thermal and structural analyses in Rosario de La Frontera geothermal area (NW Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cap rock characterization of geothermal systems is often neglected despite fracturing may reduce its efficiency and favours fluid migration. We investigated the siliciclastic cap rock of Rosario de La Frontera geothermal system (NW Argentina) in order to

Implications of structural inheritance in oblique rift zones for basin compartmentalization: Nkhata Basin, Malawi Rift (EARS) [PDF]

open access: yesMarine and Petroleum Geology, 2016
The Cenozoic East African Rift System (EARS) is an exceptional example of active continental extension, providing opportunities for furthering our understanding of hydrocarbon plays within rifts. It is divided into structurally distinct western and eastern branches.

Characteristics of Changchengian rifts in southern margin of North China Craton and its hydrocarbon geological conditions

open access: yesPetroleum Research, 2018
The Meso-Neoproterozoic strata are wildly distributed in North China Craton (NCC), of which Changchengian strata are most widely developed. Taking Changchengian strata in south margin of NCC as the study object, and combined with comprehensive analysis ...

From source to sink in central Gondwana: Exhumation of the Precambrian basement rocks of Tanzania and sediment accumulation in the adjacent Congo basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Apatite fission track (AFT) and (U-Th)/He (AHe) thermochronometry data are reported and used to unravel the exhumation history of crystalline basement rocks from the elevated (>1000 m above sea level) but low-relief Tanzanian Craton.

Geological characteristics of the southern segment of the Late Sinian—Early Cambrian Deyang—Anyue rift trough in Sichuan Basin, SW China

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2023
Based on the latest drilling, seismic and field outcrop data, the geological characteristics (e.g. strata, development and sedimentary evolution) of the southern segment of the Late Sinian—Early Cambrian Deyang—Anyue rift trough in the Sichuan Basin are ...

Lake Superior Rift basins

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1990
Sedimentary basins of late Precambrian age have been identified beneath Lake Superior using seismic reflection profiles leased by Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Ill., from Grant Norpac, Inc. [McGinnis et al., 1989]. These data, along with 650 km of Great Lakes International Multidisciplinary Program for Crustal Evolution (GLIMPCE) profiles ...

Controlling Factors Analyses of Sediment Dispersal From Source-to-Sink Systems of Lacustrine Rift Basin: A Case Study From Paleogene Shahejie-Dongying Formations of Nanpu Sag, Eastern China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Tectonic activity not only shapes the basic stratigraphic framework of rift basins, but also profoundly affects the sediment dispersal in rift basins. In this study, analyses of heavy mineral assemblages in different periods demonstrate that there are ...

Lacustrine mollusc radiations in the Lake Malawi Basin : experiments in a natural laboratory for evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In terminal Pliocene-early Pleistocene times, part of the Malawi Basin was occupied by paleo-lake Chiwondo. Molluscan biostratigraphy situates this freshwater lake either in the East African wet phase between 2.7-2.4 Ma or that of 2.0-1.8 Ma.

Environmental Policy Without Implementation? A Review of Factors Contributing to Implementation Gaps in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The sound formation of robust environmental policies is increasingly important for low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) to achieve their national objectives and international commitments. However, policy implementation can be complex, and environmental policies may not be prioritised given other critical socio‐economic development issues ...
