Because these sedimentary basins developed in various tectonic settings, from extensional or transtensional to flexural, transpressional or compressional, their sedimentary sequences provide unique records of the regional geology. Georesources of the Arabian Plate are also described here, including petroleum potential, reservoirs, water resources, fresh water and deep saline aquifers, as well as materials and ore deposits. The book is made by a set of papers authored by geoscientists working in both academia and industry. Numerous chapters describe some regional important geologic features and selected sedimentary basins from the Middle East, North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula domains. Other chapters focus on georesources. A particular focus is given to the geology of Saudi Arabia. This book is an important contribution to the geology of the Arabian Peninsula and its surroundings. In view of the strategic and economic importance of the regional geology and georesources of the Arabian Plate and Surroundings, this volume will constitute an important reference for a wide range of geoscientists interested in the geology of this region, especially those active in petroleum geosciences and related industry. Ultimately, readers will discover important thematic maps in this book. 410 0$aRegional Geology Reviews,$x2364-6438 606 $aGeology, Structural 606 $aSedimentology 606 $aGeophysics 606 $aPaleontology 606 $aStructural Geology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G17040 606 $aSedimentology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G17080 606 $aGeophysics/Geodesy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G18009 606 $aPaleontology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G39000 615 0$aGeology, Structural. 615 0$aSedimentology. 615 0$aGeophysics. 615 0$aPaleontology. 615 14$aStructural Geology. 615 24$aSedimentology. 615 24$aGeophysics/Geodesy. 615 24$aPaleontology. 676 $a552.5 676 $a551.440953 702 $aKhomsi$b Sami$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRoure$b François M$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAl Garni$b Mansour$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAmin$b Ammar$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910366637903321 996 $aArabian Plate and Surroundings: Geology, Sedimentary Basins and Georesources$92202168 997 $aUNINA
