Tectonic characteristics and structural styles of a continental rifted basin: Revelation from deep seismic reflection profiles

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2016
The Fushan Depression is a half-graben rifted sub-basin located in the southeast of the Beibuwan Basin, South China Sea. The Paleogene Liushagang sequence is the main hydrocarbon-bearing stratigraphic unit in the sub-basin.

Weak dissipation drives and enhances Wada basins in three-dimensional chaotic scattering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Chaotic scattering in three dimensions has not received as much attention as in two dimensions so far. In this paper, we deal with a three-dimensional open Hamiltonian system whose Wada basin boundaries become non Wada when the critical energy value is surpassed in the absence of dissipation. In particular, we study here the dissipation effects on this

Cumulative potential hydrologic impacts of surface coal mining in the eastern Powder River structural basin, northeastern Wyoming /

open access: yes, 1988
There are 16 existing and six proposed surface coal mines in the eastern Powder River structural basin of northeastern Wyoming. Coal mining companies predict water level declines of 5 ft or more in the Wasatch aquifer to extend form about 1,000 to about ...

Using the basin entropy to explore bifurcations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Bifurcation theory is the usual analytic approach to study the parameter space of a dynamical system. Despite the great power of prediction of these techniques, fundamental limitations appear during the study of a given problem. Nonlinear dynamical systems often hide their secrets and the ultimate resource is the numerical simulations of the equations.

Hydrogeology of the Point Lookout Sandstone in the San Juan structural basin, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona and Utah

open access: yes, 1990
This report is one in a series resulting from the US Geological Survey's Regional Aquifer-System Analysis (RASA) study of the San Juan structural basin that began in October 1984.

Protein Structure Prediction Using Basin-Hopping [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Chem. Phys. 128, 225106 (2008), 2008
Associative memory Hamiltonian structure prediction potentials are not overly rugged, thereby suggesting their landscapes are like those of actual proteins. In the present contribution we show how basin-hopping global optimization can identify low-lying minima for the corresponding mildly frustrated energy landscapes.

SUMMARY OF THE SAN JUAN STRUCTURAL BASIN REGIONAL AQUIFER-SYSTEM ANALYSIS, NEW MEXICO, COLORADO, ARIZONA, AND UTAH

open access: yes, 1996
Ground-water resources are the only source of water in most of the San Juan structural basin and are mainly used for municipal, industrial, domestic, and stock purposes.

Basin Effects in Strong Ground Motion: A Case Study from the 2015 Gorkha, Nepal Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The term "basin effects" refers to entrapment and reverberation of earthquake waves in soft sedimentary deposits underlain by concave basement rock structures. Basin effects can significantly affect the amplitude, frequency and duration of strong ground motion, while the cone-like geometry of the basin edges gives rise to large amplitude surface waves ...

Frustration induced transient chaos, fractal and riddled basins in coupled limit cycle oscillators [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation, 72, 586-599 (2019), 2019
This report unravels frustration as a source of transient chaotic dynamics even in a simple array of coupled limit cycle oscillators. The transient chaotic dynamics along with the multistable nature of frustrated systems facilitates the existence of complex basin structures such as fractal and riddled basins.

Geological structure and dynamic mechanism of the Termit rift basin in West African rift system

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2022
Based on seismic and drilling data in the study area, the geological structure and kinematic process of the Termit rift basin were studied using seismic profile interpretation and balanced restoration to find out the dynamic mechanism of the basin.
