Foreland basin systems

Peter G. DeCelles, Katherine A. Giles · 1 Jun 1996

A foreland basin system is defined as: (a) an elongate region of potential sediment accommodation that forms on continental crust between a contractional orogenic belt and the adjacent craton, mainly in response to geodynamic processes related to subduction and the resulting peripheral or retroarc fold‐thrust belt; (b) it consists of four discrete depozones, referred to…

Tectono‐sedimentary evolution of active extensional basins

Robert L. Gawthorpe, M. R. Leeder · 1 Sep 2000

We present conceptual models for the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of rift basins. Basin architecture depends upon a complex interaction between the three‐dimensional evolution of basin linkage through fault propagation, the evolution of drainage and drainage catchments and the effects of changes in climate and sea/lake level. In particular, the processes of fault propagation, growth, linkage and…

The large‐scale dynamics of grain‐size variation in alluvial basins, 1: Theory

Chris Paola, Paul L. Heller, Charles L. Angevine · 1 Jun 1992

ABSTRACT We study the interplay of various factors causing vertical grain‐size changes in alluvial basins using a simple coupled model for sediment transport and downstream partitioning of grain sizes. The sediment‐transport model is based on the linear diffusion equation; by deriving this from first principles we show that the main controls on the diffusivity are…

Late Cretaceous to Miocene sea‐level estimates from the New Jersey and Delaware coastal plain coreholes: an error analysis

Michelle A. Kominz, James V. Browning, Kenneth G. Miller et al. · 2 Apr 2008

ABSTRACT Sea level has been estimated for the last 108 million years through backstripping of corehole data from the New Jersey and Delaware Coastal Plains. Inherent errors due to this method of calculating sea level are discussed, including uncertainties in ages, depth of deposition and the model used for tectonic subsidence. Problems arising from the…

Types of carbonate platforms: a genetic approach

Luis Pomar · 1 Sep 2001

ABSTRACT Many types of carbonate platforms have been described, from homoclinal ramps to rimmed shelves and a full spectrum of variations in between; the distinction between these different types can be problematic. Nevertheless, classification of carbonate platforms is not just a semantic or academic issue. For example, it is clearly important for the accurate interpretation…

Basin Research template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Basin Research format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Basin Research template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Wiley format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Basin Research use?
Basin Research uses Author–year (Chicago) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." Basin Research 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Basin Research?
No. DocuGuru generates the USG LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Wiley-ready Basin Research document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Basin Research template?
