Post-Caledonian topographic and structural evolution of the Nordfjord region in Western Norway – Insights from Apatite Fission Track thermochronology and structural mapping
(Master thesis, 2023-02-06)The topographic and tectonic post-Caledonian evolution of western Norway is still not fully understood. Improving resolution in the low-temperature thermochronological database, this study focuses on a constrained area ... -
Postglasial forvitring, glasial erosjon og tektonikk som landskapsutviklende agenser i Lyse, Rogaland
(Master thesis, 2019-06-13)Lysefjordområdet, hovedsakelig bestående av granitt, antas å ha vært dekket av is gjentatte ganger i kvartær. Området har lavt relieff og ligger over havnivå, og fjellplatåer er separert av dype glasiale søkk og fjorder. ... -
Potential Seismogenic Faults in Norway
(Master thesis, 2019-06-26)Identification of seismogenic potential of faults in an area is crucial in the assessment of earthquake hazard. One of the most challenging tasks in seismotectonic analysis that leads to the identification of the seismogenic ... -
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 ... -
Processing and Interpretation of Multichannel Seismic Reflection Data Acquired off Isfjorden, Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2022-10-03)The Svalbard archipelago has been complexly deformed during its billions of years-long evolution history, where fault zones, other deformation structures and hard seafloor morphology have emerged. This research project has ... -
Processing and interpretation of reflection seismic data from Isfjorden, Svalbard

Prosessering og tolkning av refleksjonsseismiske data fra Isfjorden, Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2020-09-01)I august 2002 ble fire 2D multikanals refleksjonsseismiske linjer innsamlet innerst i Isfjorden, i det som i denne studien kalles Billefjorden området. Studieområdet er preget av Billefjorden forkastningssone (BFZ), og har ... -
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 ... -
Reconstructing environmental variability at Leynavatn, Faroe Islands
(Master thesis, 2019-06-26)A new continuous environmental reconstruction has been established based on a 390 cm long lake core from Leynavatn Streymoy (southeast Faroes Islands), containing sediments spanning from the last 550 CE (Common Era). To ... -
Refining Greenland geothermal heat flux through stable isotope analysis
(Master thesis, 2023-03-30)Geothermal heat flux is an important control on the dynamics of glaciers and ice sheets. In Greenland however, only few direct observations of geothermal heat flux exist. The exact spatial distribution and magnitude of ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Sedimentære miljø, mikrobielle samfunn og porevannkjemi: Sammenligning av sedimenter fra dyphavet og på kontinentalskråningen ved Bjørnøyviften
(Master thesis, 2023-06-06)Hensikten med studien er å undersøke om Mohn-Knipovich ryggen har høyere sedimentasjonsrater og mikrobiell aktivitet enn den nærliggende, grunnmarine kontinentalskråningen sørvest for Bjørnøyrenna. Grunnmarine avsetningsmiljø ... -
Seismic imaging of faults and fault zones: insight through modelling for improved interpretation
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Faults and fault zones in the subsurface can create problems in reservoir production and well placement if gone un-detected because of restriction of fluid flow or affecting the ability of the reservoir to hold fluids. In ... -
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 ... -
Simulation of seismic attributes for earth models with different continuity properties
(Master thesis, 2019-11-21)The combination of kinematic and dynamic ray tracing has been used since the 1970s for simulation (modelling) of seismic energy in the subsurface. Kinematic/dynamic ray tracing is used to simulate the travel time, amplitude ...
