(Master thesis, 2022-03-07)De vestnorske fjordbassengene inneholder høytoppløselige arkiver som kan brukes for å studere og rekonstruere avsetningsmiljøet i fjordene. I dette studiet har de holocene avsetningsprosessene i den østlige delen av ... -
BLOKKHAV PÅ FJELLTOPPER PÅ YTRE SUNNMØRE OG LANGS INDRE ROMSDALSFJORDEN
(Master thesis, 2022-03-07)Åtte blokkhavsdekkede topper på ytre Sunnmøre og langs indre Romsdalsfjorden viser varierende overflatekarakteristikk og en stor spredning i 10Be-aldre. Aldrene strekker seg fra 15 ± 1 ka til 151 ± 2 ka, uten noen tydelige ... -
Detecting anaerobic methane oxidation coupled to sulfate reduction in hydrothermal sediments
(Master thesis, 2022-03-07)The barite field is a low-temperature vent field, characterized by microbial activity and high fluid values of $NH_4$, $SO_4^{2-}$, and $CH_4$. Geochemical analysis indicates a hydrothermal system with a sedimentary input ... -
Abrupt deglacial changes in the properties of the Atlantic Water entering the Arctic
(Master thesis, 2021-12-15)The Arctic Ocean and Barents Sea are currently experiencing rapid changes, with recent reductions in sea ice being linked to increased heat transport by warm Atlantic Water (AW) flowing into the Arctic Ocean. Knowledge of ... -
Microstructural analysis of coal-bearing deformation bands at Wangaloa, New Zealand
(Master thesis, 2021-11-22)Deformation bands are defined as tabular, millimeter to centimeter wide zones of localized strain that commonly form in porous granular rock. Deformation bands have been studied in great detail over the last four decades ... -

Process-based morphological and hydrological modelling of a glacially sculptured tidal inlet system, Vestvågøy, Lofoten
(Master thesis, 2021-10-01)This thesis investigates the decadal-scale morphological developments of a glacially sculptured tidal inlet system at the Lofoten archipelago in Norway. The tidal inlet system consists of three interconnected basins with ... -
Rekonstruksjon av bredemde sjøar ved Gråfjellsbrea, Folgefonna
(Master thesis, 2021-09-15)Global oppvarming og smeltande brear fører til aukande fare knytt til stabiliteten av bredemde sjøar og drenering ved jøkullaup. Eit jøkullaup er ei brå tapping av ein bredemd sjø med påfølgjande stor vassføring som igjen ... -
The topographic evolution of post-Caledonian landscapes in the inner Nordfjord, SW-Norway | New insights from AFT dating and thermal history modelling
(Master thesis, 2021-08-24)The topographic evolution of the present-day mountains of western Norway is not completely resolved. Long after the breakup of the Caledonides, the mountains along the passive continental margin of Norway remain high, with ... -
En kvalitativ studie av flomsignal i Opo-vassdraget, Vestland fylke
(Master thesis, 2021-08-16)En viktig kilde til informasjon om flomhendelser utover de historiske nedskrivingene er innsjøsedimenter, som fungerer som et arkiv over flommer i nedbørsfeltet. I Opo-vassdraget drenerer mesteparten av vannet til ... -
Seismic monitoring of CO2 sequestration – effects of saturation, pressure and temperature.
(Master thesis, 2021-06-22)Time-lapse seismic monitoring of carbon sequestration at Sleipner has revealed the seismic signature of injecting CO2 into the shallow Utsira reservoir. Several bright spot anomalies have occurred within the reservoir unit ... -
3D modelling and interpretation of depositional elements in the Aspelintoppen Formation, Spitsbergen, Svalbard, a facies analysis
(Master thesis, 2021-07-03)The Aspelintoppen Formation is the youngest formation in the Central Tertiary Basin, a foreland basin in Spitsbergen. It comprises an up to 1000 m thick succession of near-coastal to continental deposits. Due to the high ... -
SEDIMENTOLOGY OF BAYFILLS IN THE NESLEN FORMATION, BOOK CLIFFS, USA, WITH SPECIAL FOCUS ON THE IMPACT FROM EARLY COMPACTION ON THICKNESS- AND LITHOFACIES DISTRIBUTION
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)The Neslen Formation of the Mesaverde Group (eastern Book Cliffs, Utah) accumulated along the western margins of the Western Interior Seaway. The formation is subdivided into Lower-, Middle-, and Upper Neslen Interval. The ... -
Interdistributary bayfills, Neslen Formation (Upper Cretaceous), Book Cliffs: Processes and controls
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)The Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) Neslen Formation which crops out in the Book Cliffs, Utah (USA) has been the focus area for this study where 32 sedimentary logs have been collected to identify the sedimentary processes ... -
Polygonal faults in the northern North Sea
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)Polygonal faults have been studied in sedimentary basins at the Norwegian continental shelf and globally as non-tectonic normal faults. The polygonal faults have been recognized for a long time, but no one has described ... -
Fault sealing in the Krafla-Askja area south of Oseberg
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)Fault sealing is one of the key factors that control hydrocarbon accumulations. Faults in the subsurface can act as a conduit or a barrier to fluid flow and pressure communication. Understanding fault behavior is essential ... -
