Description
The PLATES Project produced global plate reconstructions. Mike Horn provided the project with a dataset of 845 burial history case studies. The dataset included oil generation tables, vitrinite reflection calculations, references, thermal histories, natural fracture predictions, oil generation calculations, simultaneous fractue prediction, standardized locations maps, and basin and sedimentary province classification. This poster incorporated the thermal and burial histories into plate reconstructions for added dimensions of paleodepths and temperatures.
