Petroleum systems and resource potential in Sverdrup Basin, Arctic
The Sverdrup Basin is one of the important petroliferous basins in the Arctic. It has abundant oil and gas resources, but the exploration degree is relatively low.

Tectonostratigraphic evolution of the Slyne Basin [PDF]
The Slyne Basin, located offshore NW Ireland, is a narrow and elongated basin composed of a series of interconnected grabens and half-grabens, separated by transfer zones coincident with deep crustal structures formed during the Silurian- to Devonian ...

Formation, Rotation, and Present-Day Configuration of Kashmir and Peshawar Basins in NW Himalaya
The thrust top intermontane basins that are located to the east of the Hazara-Kashmir syntaxis (HKS) in NW Himalaya are ∼NW–SE oriented and run parallel to the strike of the major Himalayan thrusts, which is in contrast to the similar basins that lie at ...

Multiscale structure in sedimentary basins [PDF]
AbstractHierarchies of superimposed structures are found in maps of geological horizons in sedimentary basins. Mapping based on three‐dimensional (3D) seismic data includes structures that range in scale from tens of metres to hundreds of kilometres. Extraction of structures from these maps without a priori knowledge of scale and shape is analogous to ...

Geological structure of the forearc basin in central Hawke’s Bay, eastern North Island [PDF]
Central Hawke’s Bay lies within an extensive forearc basin in eastern North Island that developed during the Late Miocene to Pleistocene. The onshore structural elements of Hawke’s Bay can be classified into four structural domains, each reflecting ...

Flow dynamics of an accumulation basin: a case study of upper Kahiltna Glacier, Mount McKinley, Alaska [PDF]
We interpreted flow dynamics of the Kahiltna Pass Basin accumulation zone on Mount McKinley, Alaska, USA, using 40, 100 and 900 MHz ground-penetrating radar profiles and GPS surface velocity measurements.

The Laga basin: Stratigraphic and Structural Setting
Most of the ancient turbidite systems are known being deposited in foredeep basins at the front of active thrust belt. Differently from fluvio-deltaic systems generally lacated in the more internal portion of these basins, the turbidite systems occur at different depth in the more deeper portions of these basins (foredeep turbidite systems) or in the ...

The Levantine Basin—crustal structure and origin [PDF]
Abstract The origin of the Levantine Basin in the Southeastern Mediterranean Sea is related to the opening of the Neo-Tethys. The nature of its crust has been debated for decades. Therefore, we conducted a geophysical experiment in the Levantine Basin. We recorded two refraction seismic lines with 19 and 20 ocean bottom hydrophones, respectively, and

Using high-resolution stratigraphy and structural analysis to constrain a “polyphase” tectonics in wedge-top basins. Inferences from the Late Tortonian Scillato Basin (central-northern Sicily). [PDF]
The present paper aims to show, both from a stratigraphic and structural points of view, the main features of a wedge-top syntectonic basin which evolved recording polyphase and non-coaxial tectonics.
