Our detailed chronostratigraphic framework for Canning Basin and the biomarker data on source rock history provides an increased understanding of the resource potential of the basin and similar settings worldwide. Furthermore this high-fidelity data will be used by companies to develop the 'next' generation of hydrocarbon industry modelling workflows. Our research program also has important environmental implications; providing insight into drivers for Devonian mass extinctions and as periods of past biotic crises become increasingly understood they can provide critical insights into determining the thresholds of environmental change, which may potentially serve as analogues for present-day global climate change scenarios.

我们详细的Canning盆地年代地层框架和烃源岩历史的生物标志物数据提供了对盆地资源潜力和全球类似环境的更多了解。此外，这些高保真数据将被公司用于开发“下一代”碳氢化合物行业建模工作流程。我们的研究计划也有重要的环境影响;提供深入了解泥盆纪大规模灭绝的驱动因素，随着过去生物危机的时期越来越多地被理解，它们可以为确定环境变化的阈值提供关键的见解，这可能会成为当今全球气候变化情景的模拟。
