3D seismic architecture of Pleistocene submarine channels and lobe complexes in the thin-skin deformed slope of the Levantine Basin
(Master thesis, 2013-06-03)The current study describes the architecture of Pleistocene-Holocene depositional features that is affected by the underlying structurally topography. The study area is located offshore Israel, at the Levantine Basin of ... -
3D seismic geomorphology of submarine channel-levee systems in salt-related slope setting: a case study from the western deepwater Egypt
(Master thesis, 2013-07-02)High resolution 3D seismic dataset has been used to examine gravity-driven deposits from the Plesitocene to present-day in the structurally complex area of the western Nile deepwater. The underlying Messinian salt and its ... -
3D seismic investigation of tunnel valleys in the Sørlige Nordsjø II offshore wind site: morphology, cross-cutting relationships, and glacial history
(Master thesis, 2024-06-03)Sørlige Nordsjø II (SNII) is an offshore wind site situated in the Southern Norwegian North Sea and is part of the larger goal to decarbonise the energy industry. The shallow geology of the North Sea is highly heterogeneous, ... -
A detailed field and geochemical investigation of the volcanic sequence in the Grimelid-area: The Solund-Stavfjord Ophiolite Complex
(Master thesis, 2021-12-30)This master thesis focuses on the volcanic sequence of the Solund-Stavfjord Ophiolite Complex (SSOC) in Grimelia, in order to provide more detailed information and a better understanding of the development. The SSOC (443 ... -
A detailed field and geochemical investigation of the volcanic sequence in the Våganes-area: The Solund-Stavfjord Ophiolite Complex
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)The Solund-Stavfjord Ophiolite Complex (SSOC) is located within the western Norwegian Caledonides and represents a remnant of the youngest phase of oceanic crust formation, dated to Late Ordovician (443 Ma). Detailed field ... -
A high-resolution reconstruction of climate variability at Lagoa Negra Lake Flores, Azores
(Master thesis, 2023-02-07) -
A study of normal fault structure and along-strike variations, based on the northern Moab fault system, Utah.
(Master thesis, 2022-11-07)Fault systems are complex structures where multiple elements generate a network that can deeply impact fluid flow, affecting subsurface hydrocarbon and groundwater reservoirs. However, seismic data from such structures are ... -
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 ... -
Accretionary history of Lower Ordovician island arc complexes on Bømlo: evidence from detrital zircon dating and geochemical data
(Master thesis, 2017-06-13)The provenance studies of sedimentary sequences associated with island arc complexes on Bømlo within the ophiolitic terrain of SW Norway has demonstrated that the provenance signature of these sedimentary rocks changed ... -

An investigation on the development of liquid water content in different snow types during slushflow-inducing weather conditions
(Master thesis, 2024-06-03)Slushflows, defined as rapid mass-movements of water-saturated snow, occur when high liquid water content (LWC) causes bonds to melt and the snowpack to lose cohesion, triggering flow. Characterized by their shallow release ... -
