Exploration in deeper parts of sedimentary basins requires a better understanding of the rate and timing of quartz cementation, one of the main factors controlling reservoir quality in well …
The aim of this review is to characterize the role of pressure solution creep in the ductility of the Earth's upper crust and to describe how this creep mechanism competes and interacts …
The microstructure and petrophysical properties of fault rocks from siliciclastic hydrocarbon reservoirs of the North Sea are closely related to the effective stress, temperature and …
This book is a systematic guide to the recognition and interpretation of deformation microstructures and mechanisms in minerals and rocks at the scale of a thin section …
Stylolites are ubiquitous geo-patterns observed in rocks in the upper crust, from geological reservoirs in sedimentary rocks to deformation zones, in folds, faults, and shear zones …
Interest in groundwater and other subsurface fluids has increased in recent years. Hydrogeologists and geologists are now actively exploring the role of subsurface fluids in …
