Understanding the behavior of fluids in seismically active faults and their chemical-physical
(dis) equilibrium with the host rock is important to understand the role of fluids upon …

Raman spectroscopy on carbonaceous material has become the most used
geothermometer in Earth science studies. However, its application in very different settings …

Abstract The Dongpu Depression is an important oil-producing area in the Bohai Bay Basin,
