understanding the performance and role of each formation in a petroleum play is crucial for the efficient and precise exploration and exploitation of trapped hydrocarbons in a sedimentary basin. the lorestan basin is one of the most important hydrocarbon basins of iran, and it includes various oil-prone potential source rocks and reservoir rocks. previous geochemical studies of the basin were n...

Abstract The Hammerfest Basin is an east–west-trending graben located between the Loppa High and Finnmark Platform in southern part of Norwegian Barents Sea. Mainly siliciclastic strata Carboniferous–Cenozoic age cover Caledonian basement have a total estimated thickness 5–8 km. basin evolved through several tectonic phases: Carboniferous rifting, Late Jurassic opening Atlantic Ocean, Oligocene...

Amplification corrections are presented for the finite-fault stochastic ground-motion simulation model; these corrections represent the total effect of the Los Angeles basin on the ground-motion spectra. Spectral amplification ratios were calculated by dividing the observed spectra for the 1994 Northridge and 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquakes, including shearand basin-generated waves, by the si...
