Basin modelling : practice and progress

Basin Modelling: Practice and Progress aims to focus on the application of basin modelling tools to real problems, and to share experiences as to which techniques have worked and which have not. Modelling is a valuable process of risk reduction in exploration prospectivity assessment. It is an area...
