“…temperature and timing), cooling rates, exhumation histories, and hydrocarbon source rock maturation levels within sedimentary basins (e.g. Green, Duddy, Gleadow, & Lovering, ; Naeser, Naeser, & McCulloh, ; Gallagher, Brown, & Johnson, ; Reed, Spotila, Eriksson, & Bodnar, ; Green & Duddy, ; Ketcham, ; Malusà & Fitzgerald, ). AFT thermochronology applied to sedimentary basin strata has the potential to determine maximum paleotemperatures up to ~100–120°C, as well as constrain the timing and rates of cooling (e.g.…”
