Modeling has proven its worth and now it is an  accepted procedure for analyzing and solving geological problems. The  papers in this collection are focused on modeling sediment deposition  and sedimentary sequences and have a decidedly practical flavor. Some  of the leading simulation packages, such as CORRELATOR, SEDFLUX,  SEDpak, SEDSIM, STRATA, and STRATSIM are applied to problems in  hydrocarbon exploration, oil production, groundwater development,  coal-bed appraisal, geothermics, and environmental diagnosis. All of  these subjects fall under the broad heading of sedimentary basin  analysis. The fifteen papers in this volume are written by  internationally recognized experts from academia and industry. The  contributions represent the status of geologic modeling and simulation  at the start of the 21st century, and will give the reader an insight  into current research problems and their possible solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2001-08-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780306466755\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-1359-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 352\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185151459468,"sku":"9780306466755","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780306466755.jpg?v=1775012653","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780306466755","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
