Fracture overprinting history using Markov chain analysis: Windsor-Kennetcook subbasin, Maritimes Basin, Canada

Large-scale natural fracture network patterns: Insights from automated mapping in the Lilstock (Bristol Channel) limestone outcrops)

“…Given large networks and well-defined criteria, if might be more prudent to use statistical strategies such as Markov chains to automatically assign generations (Snyder & Waldron, 2018). In future work, we intend to apply such automated approaches to the full-detailed fracture networks presented in this paper and compare the automatically-assigned generations to those that have been manually-assigned in previous literature relevant to the Lilstock pavement.…”
