Abstract
Advances in quantitative understanding of basin formation mechanisms and integration of these concepts in forward stratigraphic modelling tools provide increasingly accurate constraints on predictions for basin fill in extensional and compressional basins (Cloetingh et al., 1993, 1994). An important step in this direction is provided by the incorporation of effects of changes in stress regime and compressional reactivation in the modelling of basins formed in an extensional regime.
