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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -

Rekonstruksjon av deglasiasjonsforløpet og havnivåendringar i Valldal, Fjord kommune, Møre og Romsdal, ved bruk av 10Be-eksponeringsdatering og GIS-analysar
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)Hovudformålet med masteroppgåva er å rekonstruere deglasiasjonsforløpet og havnivåendringane i Valldal, Fjord kommune, for seinglasial tid og holocen. 27 beryllium-10 eksponeringsaldrar frå overflater i Valldal nyttast til ... -
Ground penetrating radar for archaeology in Western Norway: Examples from Lyse Abbey and Fana burial mound
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)In recent years, ground penetrating radar (GPR) has been an important geophysical tool in archaeological prospecting in Norway with discoveries of high interest such as viking ships and iron age settlements. Western Norway ... -
Kartlegging av potensialet for jøkullaup frå Pyttabreen, Folgefonna i notid og gjennom holocen
(Master thesis, 2021-03-25)Veksande risiko for naturafarar knytt til jøkullaup og bredemte sjøar, er ein konsekvens av global oppvarming, varmare klima og brear som smeltar. Ei jøkullaupshendinga er ei brå tapping av smeltevatn frå ein bredemt sjø ... -

Fracture patterns in a fold – a case study from Bude, UK
(Master thesis, 2021-03-05)Fracture patterns in a well-exposed folded Carboniferous sandstone and shale sequence at Bude, SW England, have been analysed, and the use of such surface analogues for modelling fracture systems is discussed. Each fracture ... -
THE GEOMETRY AND TOPOLOGY OF DEFORMATION BAND NETWORKS IN VOLCANICLASTIC ROCKS: A CASE STUDY FROM SHIHTIPING, SOUTH-EASTERN TAIWAN
(Master thesis, 2021-03-05)Deformation bands are tabular strain localization features, common in porous and granular rocks. These structures of millimeter to centimeter thickness can occur as single bands and develop into clusters or networks of ... -
Skredkartlegging og -kronologi mellom Indreeide og Korsmyra, Korsmyrdalen, indre Sunnmøre
(Master thesis, 2020-12-19)Skredavsetninger er vanlige i norske daler og fjorder. Studier av tidligere skredhendelser og skredavsetninger er viktig i arbeidet med skredfarevurderinger, da «naturlige» utløste skred ofte gjentar seg på steder der det ... -
Quantifying Earth System Interactions across the Mid-Pleistocene Transition
(Master thesis, 2020-12-17)Many different mechanisms have been proposed to explain the change in glacial intensity and duration that occurred during the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MPT), 1250-700 thousand years ago. Despite a growing volume of ... -
Structure and Geochronology of the Acquadolce Phyllites and Metasiltstones (Elba Island, Italy)
(Master thesis, 2020-12-10)The Oligocene Acquadolce Phyllites and Metasiltstones (APM) of eastern Elba, Italy are high- pressure (HP) rocks related to the Apennine subduction zone. The unit gained newfound attention after the findings of high-pressure ...
