Lithospheric folding is an important mode of basin formation in compressional intraplate
settings. Basins formed by lithospheric folding are characterized by distinct features in …

Knowledge of temperature at drillable depth is a prerequisite in site selection for geothermal
exploration and development of enhanced geothermal systems (EGS). Equally important …

The Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) is the European
Space Agency's (ESA) satellite gravity mission to determine the Earth's mean gravity field …

Subsurface temperature is a key parameter for geothermal energy prospection in
sedimentary basins. Here, we present the results of a 3D temperature modelling using a …

Rheological heterogeneities in the lithosphere have first order control on the topographical
expression of tectonic processes. Pre-existing orogenic suture zones localise extensional …

In this study the resource base for EGS (enhanced geothermal systems) in Europe was
quantified and economically constrained, applying a discounted cash-flow model to different …

Abstract The Scotia Sea is one of the tectonically most complex and least understood back-
arc basins on Earth, which partly results from its remote location making the acquisition of …

Sedimentary basins in NW‐Germany and the Netherlands represent potential targets for
shale gas exploration in Europe due to the presence of Cretaceous (Wealden) and Jurassic …

Understanding heat transport in sedimentary basins requires an assessment of the regional
3D heat distribution and of the main physical mechanisms responsible for the transport of …

The subsurface temperature is one of the most crucial parameters for the development of
geothermal energy. Physics-based temperature models calibrated with temperature data are …
