ICONS basin atlas: Global basin list

The ICONS basin atlas is a collection of basin data for selected regions of the globe, displaying crustal structure data, computed extension factors and tectonic subsidence grids and derivatives thereof as well as the dynamic topography evolution of a given basin.

To locate a basin, you can use the 'Find' option in your browser. At the moment, there is no search function for these pages.
