The evolution of trees and forests through the Devonian Period fundamentally changed the
Earth's land biosphere, as well as impacting physical environments and geomorphology by …

The fundamental global changes seen during Carboniferous times are reflected in this
account of the geological record of this Period in Scotland. Following the end-Devonian …

This chapter is unusual in that rather than being about Scotland from the perspective of a
geological period it instead documents a very distinctive lithology of continental sediments …

In this paper we used basin and petroleum systems modelling (BPSM) of the Inner Moray
Firth, UK North Sea to identify the contributions of different source rocks, mixing ratios of …

Scotland's Earth resources, which include minerals, hydrocarbons, water and hydro energy,
have for many centuries provided a driver for population and economic growth. The nature …

Spatially and temporally variable Tournaisian to Namurian Carboniferous fluvial, fluvio-
deltaic, platform carbonate and shale-dominated basin sedimentary successions up to 3.5 …

Decades of oil and gas exploration across the North Sea have led to a detailed
understanding of its Cenozoic–Mesozoic structure. However, the deeper basin architecture …

Abstract The Eifelian-aged Hangman Sandstone Formation of southwest England is a unit of
the 'Old Red Sandstone'that has traditionally been considered relatively barren of trace …

Well penetrations on the UK East Shetland Platform (ESP) prove 1–8 km-thick Devonian
post-orogenic extensional collapse-related successions. Conversely, extremely thick (1–6 …

This study aims to expand on existing connections between magnetic minerals and
hydrocarbons within petroleum systems. Previous studies have focussed on single-source …
