Integration of geophysical and geological data and numerical models in basins

During the past decades vast amounts of geological, geophysical and, more recently, geodetic data from sedimentary basins have been accumulated. Integrated interpretation of these complementary data has the potential of constraining quantitative models to hitherto unknown detail, provided these models in a physically consistent way incorporate a wide variety of processes related to basin evolution. This Special Issue emphasises the importance of a synergic use of geophysical and geological data and different modelling methodologies, analytical and numerical, in the analysis of basin evolution. It collects manuscript submitted by scientists from different disciplines and emphasizes various integrated modelling methods to identify the perspectives for further developments.
