Fractures generated by internal fluid pressure, for example, dykes, mineral veins, many
joints and man-made hydraulic fractures, are referred to as hydrofractures. Together with …

This paper presents an overview of the role of structural heterogeneities in hydrocarbon
entrapment, migration and flow. Three common structural heterogeneity types are …

Twenty three ENVISAT Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images acquired in 2003–2010
were processed with conventional SAR Interferometry (InSAR) and Persistent Scatterer …

Improving the prediction of sub-seismic structures and their petrophysical properties is
essential for realistic characterization of deformed sandstone reservoirs. In the present …

Field measurements were made of 1717 mineral-filled veins in the damage zone of an
active dextral strike-slip fault zone in Iceland. Most veins are composed of quartz …

Fractured rock is the host or foundation for innumerable engineered structures related to
energy, water, waste, and transportation. Characterizing, modeling, and monitoring fractured …

Brittle faults and fault zones are important fluid flow conduits through the upper part of
Earth's crust that are involved in many well-known phenomena (eg earthquakes, thermal …

A reference for students, researchers, and environmental professionals, Hydrogeological
Conceptual Site Models: Data Analysis and Visualization explains how to develop effective …

We studied the structures and stable isotope geochemistry of carbonate fault rocks in four
normal faults of central Italy. The faults juxtapose Meso‐Cenozoic carbonates of the …

Palaeofluid-transporting systems, observed as networks of mineral-filled veins in deeply
eroded parts of extinct geothermal fields, indicate that hydrofractures commonly supply fluids …
