The term porosity is very widely used in geosciences and normally refers to the spaces
between the mineral grains or organic material in a rock, measured as a fraction of the total …

Sequences of diagenetic minerals associated with secondary porosity show striking
similarities. The formation of quartz overgrowths on detrital quartz grains is generally …

Proper assessment of the relative importance of porosity loss by compaction and
cementation is important to the prediction of porosity in sandstones, studies of mass …

We propose here a new geothermometer for natural waters. Analyses from many explored
geothermal fields allow us to define two empirical thermometric relationships. One is for …

This report describes the theoretical aspects, the modeling capabilities and the limitations of
the geochemical computer code SOLMINEQ. 88. This code is the latest version of …

Although the presence of carboxylic acids and carboxylate anions in oil field waters is
commonly attributed to the thermal maturation of kerogen or bacterial degractation of …

Diagenesis is the sum of those processes by which originally sedimentary clastic
assemblages attempt to reach equilibrium with their environments. The subject has rapidly …

A new mathematical transformation of Na, Ca, and Cl concentrations in numerous basinal
fluids around the world produces a linear slope of unity between the mill iequivalencies of …

The range of physical and chemical conditions included in diagenesis is 02000 C 1 2000 kg
cm2 and water salinities from fresh to brines twice as concentrated as the Dead Sea …

A large alkaline, saline lake, Lake T'oo'dichi', occupied the entire eastern part of the
Colorado Plateau region during deposition of the Brushy Basin Member of the Upper …
