Stratigraphy and sedimentology of the northern part of the upper Gazelle Formation, eastern Klamath Mountains, northern California
… active continental margin. A retroarc successor basin model and a trench slope basin model are proposed to explain the tectonic setting of the Gazelle Formation.

The petroleum potential of the passive continental margin of South-Western Africa : a basin modelling study
… Continental Margin of South-Western Africa - A Basin Modelling Study The hydrocarbon potential of the continental margin of south-western Africa was assessed with means of a 2D basin modelling study of the hydrocarbon generation, migration and accumulation of the Kudu gas field. The basin model …

A quantitative analysis of the impact of land use changes on floods in the Manafwa River Basin
… The analysis was conducted using a hydrologic model of the Manafwa watershed. The model had two main components: a meteorological model and a basin model. The meteorological model contained past rainfall data of the watershed and the basin model used the SCS curve number method as its soil …

Modeling the Impact of Flood Pulses on Disease Outbreaks in Large Water Basins with Scarce Data
Large river water basins play a critical role in the economic, health, and biodiversity conditions of a region. In some basins, such as the Zambezi River Basin, extreme weather events introduce cycles of drought and heavy rainfall that can have extreme impacts on local communities vulnerable to …

Residual overturning circulation and its connection to Southern Ocean dynamics
… circulation. First I examined the role of basin width for determining whether the Atlantic or Pacific oceans experience deep convection. I used a two layered model and a rectangular single-basin model to show that the basin width, in combination with scalings for the overturning circulation …

Organic petrology, maturation, thermal and burial history analysis, and hydrocarbon generation and migration modeling of the Saudi Arabian paleozoic petroleum systems
… Arabia and extra light oil in Central Arabia. A basin modeling approach was used to quantify important aspects of the petroleum system. First, 17 regional wells were selected to establish a reference tool for the three dimensional (3-D) basin model using multiple one dimensional (1-D) models. …

Tax Accounting Method and Offshore Petroleum Development: A Policy Evaluation Model Employing Royalty Equivalents and Excise Taxes (Oil and Gas, Capital Budgeting, Simulation, Capitalization, Net Present Value)
… research employed a capital budgeting simulation model of a natural gas reservoir. The research did not consider uncertainty or capital rationing. The key financial variables were: tax accounting method, discount rates, expected price and costs, royalty rates, tax rates, tax credits, and expected …

Investigations on the thermal calibration of sedimentary basin models - a case study from the Horn Graben in the Danish North Sea
… the wells were used for calibration of 1D and 2D basin modelling studies conducted within the first part of this thesis. As the exploration wells did not find petroleum it was subject of the investigation to clarify why the wells were “dry” and where possible hydrocarbons are potentially trapped. …

Influence of high latitude anomalies on tropical climate phenomena and global climate
… “Tropical Atlantic Dipole” (TAD). Analysis of model data shows a dipole pattern in the SST, with strong cross-equatorial asymmetry in the surface mixed layer. Below the mixed layer the pattern becomes symmetric, and Kelvin and Rossby wave like adjustment can be seen to occur. However, the …

Reduce the charge risking applying migration tracers
… Current charge risking primarily relies on basin models built on geophysical, geological, geochemical source rock parameters. Geochemical post well analyses are typically done only for oil–oil or oil–source correlations and in many cases not integrated to geophysical and geology evaluations. …

Structural development of a volcanic sequence of the Lahn area during the Variscan orogeny in the Rhenohercynian Belt (Germany)
… imbricate thrust systems. Superposed folding (basin and dome) structure is constructed on the Lahn syncline. The strain analysis: The 2-D analysis is based on the Rf/f measurement, and 3-D analysis is applied by the direct measurement of the principal finite strain axes. Re-analysis of previous …

Analytical and statistical approaches toward understanding sedimentation in siliciclastic depositional systems
… the primary input signal and a one dimensional model allows qualitative-quantitative characterization of the effects of different fan processes. Environments dominated by different fan processes may be characterized based on the degree to which processes have acted as a "filter", systematically …

Modeling of Pore Pressure Change, Fault Slip Potential and Induced Seismicity in Fort Worth Basin
The seismicity rate in Fort-Worth Basin, north-central Texas, where a lot of hydrocarbon production and disposal water injection activities happen, has increased dramatically from 2008 till now. There are five main seismicity sequences in this region, which are DFW Airport Earthquake (2008), …

Integrated river basin management for the Ganges: lessons from the Murray-Darling and Mekong River Basins (a Bangladesh perspective).
… examines the applicability of the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) model of Integrated River Basin Management to the Ganges Basin by utilising the lessons from the Mekong experience of adopting the MDB model. The Ganges is one of the major rivers in the world and the sharing of its water has long been …
