TLDR
In this article, a set of possible source rocks was analyzed by organic geochemical and petrographical methods, and the maturation of source rocks and generation, expulsion and migration of hydrocarbons was evaluated by means of 1D and 2D basin models.

Neogene uplift of central eastern Patagonia: Dynamic response to active spreading ridge subduction?

TL;DR: The Chile Triple Junction (CTJ) episodically migrated northward during the past 14 Ma from 54°S to its present-day position at 46°30'S, as different almost trench-parallel spreading segments entered in subduction as mentioned in this paper.

Timing and magnitude of Holocene sea-level changes along the middle and south Patagonian Atlantic coast derived from beach ridge systems, littoral terraces and valley-mouth terraces.

TL;DR: Mitrovica et al. as discussed by the authors found that the early Holocene sea-level rise reached the modern coastline by 8100 14C years ago (c. 8600 14C) at the latest.

Patagonian broken foreland and related synorogenic rifting: The origin of the Chubut Group Basin

TL;DR: In this paper, structural, 2D and 3D seismic data at the San Bernardo FTB and the adjacent Rio Mayo Basin were analyzed to unravel the different evolutionary stages of the Chubut Group Basin.

Phanerozoic paleoenvironment and paleolithofacies maps : Mesozoic

J. Golonka
TL;DR: The most significant Triassic convergent event was the Indosinian orogeny, the collision of Indochina and Indonesia with South China, and consolidation of Chinese blocks as mentioned in this paper.

Chronology of fluctuating sea levels since the triassic.

TL;DR: An effort has been made to develop a realistic and accurate time scale and widely applicablechronostratigraphy and to integrate depositional sequences documented in public domain outcrop sections from various basins with this chronostratigraphic framework.

Some remarks on the development of sedimentary basins

TL;DR: A simple model for the development and evolution of sedimentary basins is proposed in this paper, which consists of a rapid stretching of continental lithosphere, which produces thinning and passive upwelling of hot asthenosphere.

Guidelines for Evaluating Petroleum Source Rock Using Programmed Pyrolysis

Kenneth E. Peters
- 01 Mar 1986 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used pyrolysis to rapidly evaluate the petroleum-generative potential and thermal maturity of rocks and found that most coals showed high S2/S3 (>5) and low HI values (< 300 mg HC/g TOC.

Evaluation of a Simple Model of Vitrinite Reflectance Based on Chemical Kinetics

Jerry J. Sweeney, +1 more
- 01 Oct 1990 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a simplified version of a vitrinite maturation model, called EASY%R[o], was presented, which uses an Arrhenius first-order parallel-reaction approach with a distribution of activation energies.
