Geologic provinces of Europe including Turkey, 2000 (prv4_2l)
This coverage includes arcs, polygons and polygon labels that describe
U.S. Geological Survey defined geologic provinces of Europe including Turkey.
(Albania, Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary,
Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, The Former Yugoslav Republic
of Macedonia, Malta, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania,
San Marino, Serbia and Montenegro, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom and Vatican City.) Each province has a set
of geologic characteristics distinguishing it from surrounding
provinces. These characteristics may include the dominant lithologies,
the age of the strata, and the structural style. Some provinces include
multiple genetically-related basins. Offshore province boundaries are
generally defined by the 2000 meter bathymetric contour, but where appropriate
are defined by the 4000 meter bathymetric contour. In some cases province
boundaries are delineated by political boundaries, as in the case of
The United States and Canada, because United States petroleum resources were
assessed separately by the U.S. Geological Survey. Provinces are classified
as either Priority or Boutique. A priority province is one of 76 non-U.S.
geologic provinces defined by the U.S. Geological Survey that together contain
95 percent of the world's non-U.S. known petroleum volume. All priority
provinces were analyzed for undiscovered petroleum-resources. A boutique
province is a geologic province, other than a priority province, as defined
by the U.S. Geological Survey, considered for petroleum-resource assessment.
Boutique provinces can be chosen for a variety of geologic, political, technical
and geographic reasons. Resource-assessments are conducted by research scientists
of the U.S Geological Survey's World Petroleum Assessment 2000 by means of a
combination of Petroleum System analysis based on available geologic information,
and statistical analysis of production and exploration information.
