87Sr/86Sr Ratios in Shallow and Deep Aquifers and Thermal Water from the Eastern Boundary Fault of the Northern Upper Rhine Graben at the Heidelberg Basin, Germany☆

TLDR
Strontium isotopic ratios are important tracers of hydrological processes such as water-rock interaction and the detection of the ascent of deep fluids at hydraulically active faults as mentioned in this paper.

Impact of rift dynamics on palaeoenvironmental conditions and hydrocarbon system development (northern Upper Rhine Graben, SW Germany)

TL;DR: In this paper, a multidisciplinary analysis of the palaeoenvironmental conditions and source-rock development within the transgressive marine intervals was performed to improve the understanding of the European Cenozoic Rift System.

Long sequence of Quaternary Rocks in the Heidelberg Basin Depocentre

TL;DR: In this article, a description and classification of the successions of the new scientific core drillings at Heidelberg is presented, where sediment provenance, lithofacies-associations, and the ratio of accommodation space and sediment input are used.

The Heidelberg drilling project (Upper Rhine Graben, Germany)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present some very preliminary results of pre-project research and stimulate further collaboration into the main project to come, which is run by a Co-operation of the Leibniz Institute for Applied Geosciences (Hannover) and the Geological Services of the three German federal States sharing the territories of the Heidelberg basin (Baden-Wurttemberg, Hessen, Rheinland-Pfalz).

A multi-tracer approach for the exploration of deep geothermal energy potential and fault zone characterisation, applied in the Upper Rhine Graben

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used 3D reflection seismics to identify permeable fault zones and the geometry of geothermal aquifers, but this analysis alone does not allow for an estimation of an active fault's hydraulic permeability nor provides a characterisation of the chemical properties of the deep aquifer fluid.
