Accurate salt interpretation involves an integration of geology and geophysics. In the practice of salt interpretation and model building in depth imaging, we see two problems that could happen: exclusive geophysical interpretation without geological input and insufficient geological interpretation without understanding how the geophysical data are processed and without evaluating the limit and...

3D geological models become increasingly important and popular recently. But it is too difficult to share the models because of different models come from different modeling software. It is urgent to solve the problem for the unification of data management. Based on it, the paper explains basic construction and architecture if GeoSciML to discuss how to take advantage of this standard and defin...

Vast quantities of natural gas are held in hydrate form in geologic reservoirs in sub-oceanic sediments and arctic permafrost zones (KVENVOLDEN, 1988; SLOAN, 1998), where conditions of high pressure and low temperature are within the hydrate stability region. In 1995, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted a study to assess the quantity of natural gas hydrate resources in the United States...

A late Pliocene – early Pleistocene, 2.9–2.0Ma, diatom record from the Antarctic Geological Drilling Program (ANDRILL) MIS drillcore AND-1B is presented. This core, recovered from beneath the Ross Ice Shelf south of Ross Island, comprises multiple diatomaceous-sediment units deposited during interglacial periods with open water over the core site. These represent interglacial phases of orbitall...

In the last decade, Ground-Based Synthetic Aperture Radar (GB-SAR) systems have gained an increasing interest. Many different applications take advantages of the flexibility and capability of such systems to measure deformations with submillimeter precision, map terrains and monitor landslides and other geological phenomena. In literature different focusing algorithms have been proposed. The ai...
