Sedimentary basins are regions of the earth of long-term subsidence creating accommodation space for infilling by sediments. The subsidence results from the thinning of underlying crust, sedimentary, volcanic, and tectonic loading, and changes in the thickness or density of adjacent lithosphere. Sedimentary basins occur in diverse geological settings usually associated with plate tectonic activity. Basins are classified structurally in various ways, with a primary classifications distinguishing among basins formed in various plate tectonic regime (divergent, convergent, transform, intraplate), the proximity of the basin to the active plate margins, and whether oceanic, continental or transitional crust underlies the basin. Basins formed in different plate tectonic regimes vary in their preservation potential. On oceanic crust, basins are likely to be subducted, while marginal continental basins may be partially preserved, and intracratonic basins have a high probability of preservation. As the sediments are buried, they are subjected to increasing pressure and begin the process of lithification. A number of basins formed in extensional settings can undergo inversion which has accounted for a number of the economically viable oil reserves on earth which were formerly basins.

QuakeCoRE Seminar Series: Improving Our Understanding of Sedimentary Basins Through Regional Site Investigation Studies: National Update - Andrew Stolte (2020)
Most populated and developed areas in Aotearoa New Zealand have been founded upon a deep, soft sedimentary basins, which increase the seismic hazard due to soil site effects and “basin effects” associated with the entrapment and amplification of seismic waves and the generation of localised surface waves. To improve understanding of these effects, several seismic field testing programmes have been undertaken nationwide, leveraging the experience and capabilities of QuakeCoRE Technology Platform 2. These regional field testing studies utilise different geophysical methods to advance our understanding of the variation in the depth to...

Fault rocks in sedimentary basins - an introduction
Part of the Shear Zone Channel. Faults can play a major role in controlling fluid pathways, segmenting subsurface aquifers and hydrocarbon reservoirs, compromising otherwise impermeable layers targeted for deep geo-storage sites (e.g. for CO2, rad waste). Fault zone permeability reflects the fault rocks formed along them. This video provides an introduction. Other videos build on these ideas to explore how these materials can be parameterised and their properties upscaled - and forecast in the subsurface.

To improve understanding of these effects, several seismic field testing programmes have been undertaken nationwide, leveraging the experience and capabilities of QuakeCoRE Technology Platform 2. These regional field testing studies utilise different geophysical methods to advance our understanding of the variation in the depth to bedrock and the properties of the soil deposits within each basin. Ultimately this new knowledge will form the basis for the updating of the seismic hazard nationwide and help estimate the shaking intensities for a given earthquake scenario.
This presentation will highlight recent site investigation studies across Aotearoa New Zealand undertaken in collaboration with researchers at many NZ universities, within several sedimentary basins, including the Canterbury, Nelson-Tasman, Blenheim/Wairau, South Dunedin, Wellington, Tauranga, Napier/Hastings, Hauraki Plains, and Waikato sedimentary basins.
