Relative performance of support vector machine, decision trees, and random forest classifiers for predicting production success in US unconventional shale plays
Unconventional shale reservoirs have revolutionized the energy industry. However, the prediction of production based on reservoir geology characterization has largely focused...
Plotting and analyzing data trends in ternary diagrams made easy
Ternary plots are used in many fields of science to characterize a system based on three components. Triangular plotting is...
Physicochemical Conditions of the Devonian-Jurassic Continental Deep Biosphere Tracked by Carbonate Clumped Isotope Temperatures of Granite-Hosted Carbonate Veins
Previous studies have shown that microorganisms thrive in oligotrophic fracture systems, and metabolisms include consumption and production of methane. In...
Geometry, spatial arrangement and origin of carbonate grain‐dominated, scour‐fill and event‐bed deposits: Late Jurassic Jubaila Formation and Arab‐D Member, Saudi Arabia
Outcrop analogues of the Late Jurassic lower Arab‐D reservoir zone in Saudi Arabia expose a succession of fining‐upward cycles deposited...
Application of redox sensitive proxies and carbonate clumped isotopes to Mesozoic and Palaeozoic radiaxial fibrous calcite cements
Ancient marine radiaxial calcite cements are commonly exploited as archives of marine porewater properties based on the argument that they...
The sensitivity of estimates of multiphase fluid and solid properties of porous rocks to image processing
X-ray microcomputed tomography (X-ray μ-CT) is a rapidly advancing technology that has been successfully employed to study flow phenomena in...
Mineral texture classification using deep convolutional neural networks: An application to zircons from porphyry copper deposits
The texture and morphology of igneous zircon indicates magmatic conditions during zircon crystallization and can be used to constrain provenance....
Clay assemblage and oxygen isotopic constraints on the weathering response to the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum, east coast of North America
The Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum, a transient global warming event, is characterized by extensive evidence of a more active hydrological cycle....
Impact of dataset size and convolutional neural network architecture on transfer learning for carbonate rock classification
Modern geological practices, in both industry and academia, rely largely on a legacy of observational data at a range of...
Effects of Improved 17O correction on inter-laboratory agreement in clumped isotope calibrations, estimates of mineral specific offsets, and temperature dependence of acid digestion fractionation
The clumped isotopic composition of carbonate‐derived CO2 (denoted Δ47) is a function of carbonate formation temperature and in natural samples...
