• Crustal domains in the Western Barents Sea 

      Shulgin, Alexey A; Faleide, Jan Inge; Mjelde, Rolf; Breivik, Asbjørn Johan; Huismans, Ritske Sipke (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The crustal architecture of the Barents Sea is still enigmatic due to complex evolution during the Timanian and Caledonian orogeny events, further complicated by several rifting episodes. In this study we present the new ...
    • Crustal structure and erosion of the Lofoten/Vesterålen shelf, northern Norwegian margin 

      Breivik, Asbjørn Johan; Faleide, Jan Inge; Mjelde, Rolf; Flueh, Ernst; Murai, Yoshio (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      The Norwegian continental shelf has been through several rift phases since the Caledonian orogeny. Early Cretaceous rifting created the largest sedimentary basins, and Early Cenozoic continental breakup between East Greenland ...
    • Crustal structure and evolution of the Arctic Caledonides: Results fromcontrolled-source seismology 

      Aarseth, Iselin; Mjelde, Rolf; Breivik, Asbjørn Johan; Minakov, Alexander; Faleide, Jan Inge; Flueh, Ernst R.; Huismans, Ritske (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 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 ...
    • Crustal structure and origin of the Eggvin Bank west of Jan Mayen, NE Atlantic 

      Tan, Pingchuan; Breivik, Asbjørn Johan; Trønnes, Reidar G; Mjelde, Rolf; Azuma, Ryosuke; Eide, Sigurd (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 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 ...
    • Dynamic Topography Development North of Iceland from Subaerial Exposure of the Igneous Logi Ridge, NE Atlantic 

      Tan, Pingchuan; Breivik, Asbjørn Johan; Mjelde, Rolf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      The Logi Ridge, located north of the West Jan Mayen Fracture Zone, is E-W oriented and 140-150 km long. The seafloor surrounding the Logi Ridge is ~0.65 km shallower than the conjugate seafloor east of the Mohn’s Ridge, ...
    • A new tectono-magmatic model for the Lofoten/Vesterålen Margin at the outer limit of the Iceland Plume influence 

      Breivik, Asbjørn Johan; Faleide, Jan Inge; Mjelde, Rolf; Flueh, Ernst R.; Murai, Yoshio (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 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 ...
