Description: Simulates the burial, compaction and thermal history of a
        sedimentary basin in one dimension, for geologists and
        stratigraphers. A basin is described by one row per
        stratigraphic unit and one row per erosion event, from which
        deposition phases, hiatuses, layer stacks, maximum-burial
        windows and grain (solid) thicknesses are derived. Compaction
        follows an exponential porosity-depth law and is irreversible,
        so uplifted layers keep the porosity acquired at their deepest
        burial. Temperatures follow the steady-state conductive
        geotherm of a layered column with radiogenic heat production.
        The methods follow the textbook treatment of Allen and Allen
        (2013, ISBN:978-0-470-67377-5). Functions are included to draw
        a composite figure of burial, temperature and hydrocarbon
        generation windows and a petroleum system event chart.
