This book provides a comprehensive introduction to techniques for
quantitative subsidence analysis and visualization with example
applications. Subsidence analysis is an essential step to
understand basin evolution through geologic time and space in the
study of sediments and sedimentary basins. Quantifying techniques
have been developed and applied in many basin research projects to
evaluate total, tectonic and thermal subsidence. They are also a
pre-requisite for basin evolution modelling. Recent studies have
applied visualization techniques to understand regional subsidence
contexts and trends, which confirmed that three-dimensional
visualization of the basin subsidence is highly helpful to gain
insight into basin evolution. In this book, we show how geoscience
and computer science can be effectively combined in advanced basin
analysis, especially in terms of basin subsidence. Each type of
subsidence analysis is introduced with example applications. In
particular we present a study of the Vienna basin using BasinVis, a
MATLAB-based program for analyzing and visualizing basin
subsidence. Given its breadth of coverage, this book will benefit
students in undergraduate and postgraduate courses and provide
helpful information for research projects and industry
applications.
