TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report an experiment in which five geologists each produced a framework model of a single region in the east of England, and each modeller was provided with a unique set of borehole observations from which to make their model.

TL;DR: The British Geological Survey (BGS) model for London and the Thames Valley in southeast England is described in this paper, which includes extensive spreads of Quaternary river terraces and alluvium of the Thames drainage system resting on faulted and folded Palaeogene and Cretaceous bedrock strata.

TL;DR: In this article, a 3D finite element approach accounting for coupled heat transfer and groundwater flow in the ground was used to investigate the influence of ground conditions on the heat rejection rate from basements.

TL;DR: In this article, a group of 28 geologists participated in an experiment to quantify sources of uncertainty in geologists' interpretations of a geological cross section, and the results showed good general agreement between the observed and interpreted elevations, with no evidence of systematic bias.

TL;DR: This paper investigates the impact of some common underground heat sources such as train tunnels and residential basements on subsurface temperature elevation on a large scale and highlights the influence of local geology, hydrogeology, density, and type and arrangement of the heat sources on ground thermal disturbance.
