As a preliminary phase in the conservation and sustainable management of karst system Fuentetoba, Soria, Spain, an interdisciplinary study was carried out to determine its hydrogeological evolution. The history this aquifer began during late Miocene, where discharges were driven by paleo-emergences moor, associated conduits developed under phreatic (or vadose) conditions—for example, upper syng...

Lithostratigraphy, depositional facies architecture, and diagenesis of upper Pliocene to Holocene carbonates in northern Belize are evaluated based on a ca 290 m, continuous section of samples from a well drilled on Ambergris Caye that can be linked directly to outcrops of Pleistocene limestone, and of overlying Holocene sediments. Upper Pliocene outer-ramp deposits are overlain unconformably b...

In a mature karstic system, the realisation of galleries using the methodology of railway tunnel boring machine (TBM) involves particular problems due to the high risk of interference with groundwater (often subject to remarkable level variations) and with cavities and/or thick fill deposits. In order to define groundwater features it is necessary to investigate both hydrodynamic and karstifica...

The Ordovician strike-slip faults system in the Tahe area of Tarim Basin provides an important opportunity for using 3D seismic data to document structural characteristics, formation, and evolution their relationship with oil gas. With high-resolution data, are interpreted, classified, described coherence technique. geometric active periods, process analyzed, between hydrocarbon accumulation ch...

Algeria displays various karst landscapes due to its diversity in lithology, relief, age and climate. On 16th June 1988, the northwest of Algeria, a 60 m wide sudden collapse occurred Chelif Basin about 1 km north marginal carbonate platform. Despite this large event visible dissolutions platform, region has not been classified among areas yet. Our study focuses on Messinian carbonates that for...

Abstract The Molasse Basin is one of the most promising areas for deep geothermal exploitation in Germany and target horizon aquifer Upper Jurassic carbonates. Carbonate deposits can be very heterogeneous even over a small area due to diagenetic processes varying depositional environments. preferential targets carbonate are fault zones, reef facies karstified areas, since they expected act as h...

The Lansdowne Bank is a partly drowned, isolated carbonate platform of around 4000 km2 located 300 km west New Caledonia, in the SW Pacific Ocean, water depths 20 to 100 m. multibeam bathymetric data, high resolution seismic reflection profiles and sediment gravity cores have been acquired on bank top adjacent slopes. This dataset reveals an almost continuous 4 wide outer reef rim ca. 50 m dept...
