DOI: 10.1016/j.geothermics.2020.101898
Abstract: Abstract Many hydrocarbon reservoirs show a strong relationship with evaporitic rocks worldwide. Data regarding the thermal properties of evaporitic rocks are crucial for temperature prediction and basin modelling of salt-bearing sedimentary basins; however, their systematic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jseaes.2017.10.035
Abstract: Abstract The Himalayan foreland basin is characterised by three principal sedimentary successions. These are the Subathu Group (Palaeocene-Eocene), the Murree or Dharamsala Group (Oligocene-Miocene) and the Siwalik Group (Miocene-Pleistocene). The basin was linked in the… read more here.
