Crustal structure of the ultra-slow spreading Knipovich Ridge, North Atlantic, along a presumed ridge segment center
(Springer, 2010)
A combined ocean bottom seismometer, multichannel
seismic reflection and gravity study has been carried
out along the spreading direction of the Knipovich
Ridge over a topographic high that defines a segment
center. ...
Structure and evolution of the Bellsund Graben between Forlandsundet and Bellsund (Spitsbergen) based on marine seismic data
(Geological Soceity of Norway, 2009)
Seismic interpretation of multi-channel seismic data acquired along the western shelf of Spitsbergen allowed identification of the main geological
features of the area, including the Hornsund Fault Zone, and the Forlandsundet ...
Crustal structure and origin of the Eggvin Bank west of Jan Mayen, NE Atlantic
(American Geophysical Union, 2017-01)
The Eggvin Bank, located between the Jan Mayen Island and Greenland, is an unusually shallow area containing several submarine volcanic peaks, confined by two transforms on the Northern Kolbeinsey Ridge (NKR). We represent ...
A new tectono-magmatic model for the Lofoten/Vesterålen Margin at the outer limit of the Iceland Plume influence
(Elsevier, 2017-10)
The Early Eocene continental breakup was magma-rich and formed part of the North Atlantic Igneous Province. Extrusive and intrusive magmatism was abundant on the continental side, and a thick oceanic crust was produced up ...
Geometries of doleritic intrusions in central Spitsbergen, Svalbard: an integrated study of an onshore-offshore magmatic province with implications for CO2 sequestration
(Geological Society of Norway, 2013)
Igneous intrusions emplaced during the Early Cretaceous are well exposed in central Spitsbergen within the Permian–Jurassic sedimentary succession. The doleritic intrusions are collectively classified as the Diabasodden ...
Seafloor expression and shallow structure of a surfacing fold-and-thrust system: an example from Isfjorden, West Spitsbergen
(Norwegian Polar Institute, 2012)
A detailed map of the structure of the West Spitsbergen Fold-and-Thrust Belt in the shallow part of
the Isfjorden area, Spitsbergen, is presented. The map was constructed from a new dense grid of 2D
multichannel reflection ...
The Cenozoic western Svalbard margin: sediment geometry and sedimentary processes in an area of ultraslow oceanic spreading
(Springer, 2011-04-17)
The northeastern high-latitude North Atlantic is
characterised by the Bellsund and Isfjorden fans on the
continental slope off west Svalbard, the asymmetrical
ultraslow Knipovich spreading ridge and a 1,000 m deep
rift ...
Crustal structure and evolution of the Arctic Caledonides: Results fromcontrolled-source seismology
(Elsevier, 2017-10)
The continuation of the Caledonides into the Barents Sea has long been a subject of discussion, and two major orientations of the Caledonian deformation fronts have been suggested: NNW-SSE striking and NE-SW striking. A ...
