Contrasting geomorphic and stratigraphic responses to normal fault development during single and multi-phase rifting
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-10)Understanding the impact of tectonics on surface processes and the resultant stratigraphic evolution in multi-phase rifts is challenging, as patterns of erosion and deposition related to older phases of extension are ... -
Control of increased sedimentation on orogenic fold-and-thrust belt structure-insights into the evolution of the Western Alps
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-13)We use two-dimensional thermomechanical models to investigate the potential role of rapid filling of foreland basins in the development of orogenic foreland fold-and-thrust belts. We focus on the extensively studied example ... -
Controls of basement fabric on cover faulting in strike-slip regimes: analogue physical models of faults using plaster
(Master thesis, 2015-06-01)The full complexity of deformation associated with natural faults is difficult to understand, given the lack of three-dimensional exposure in outcrop and the limitations of seismic resolution in the sub-surface. Analogue ... -
Controls of fault zone structure on synthetic seismic images of the Maghlaq Fault, Malta
(Master thesis, 2020-06-25)Application of seismic reflection data and 2D seismic modelling studies based on field analogues, contribute to closing the scale gap between field observations and interpretation of seismic data. This has improved the ... -
Controls on architecture and seismic imaging of igneous intrusions: Examples from LIDAR outcrop data on Traill Ø (East Greenland) and seismic data from the conjugate Møre Margin
(Master thesis, 2017-06-27)Intrusion of sills into sedimentary successions is a fundamental and widespread process in basins at volcanic rifted margins. Although intrusions emplaced at shallow paleodepths (<1.5 km) are relatively well understood, ... -
Controls on deformation band formation in carbonate grainstones along the Maghlaq Fault, Malta.
(Master thesis, 2018-06-20)Deformation bands are common structures in deformed porous rocks and sediments, that localise strain in millimetre to centimetre thick tabular zones. Deformation bands occurring in siliciclastic rocks have been described ... -
Controls on hydrocarbon column-heights in the Eastern province of Haltenbanken, the Norwegian Sea
(Master thesis, 2016-11-08)Knowledge of controls on hydrocarbon column-heights is highly relevant in hydrocarbon exploration, and important for determination of in-place volumes of prospects. The eastern province of Haltenbanken in the Norwegian Sea ... -
Controls on hydrocarbon column-heights in the north-eastern North Sea
(Master thesis, 2015-06-30)Knowledge about the controls on hydrocarbon column-heights is important in hydrocarbon exploration, as such column heights are the main controlling factor for in-place volumes of prospects. The north-eastern Viking Graben ... -
Controls on river patterns in active tectonic settings in the central Italian Apennines
(Master thesis, 2016-05-31)The central Italian Apennines have gone through a complex evolutionary history, involving compression and subsidence, followed by extension and uplift. The last 3 Ma, the area has experienced active extension, and presently ... -
Coordinated and Interoperable Seismological Data and Product Services in Europe: the EPOS Thematic Core Service for Seismology
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In this article we describe EPOS Seismology, the Thematic Core Service consortium for the seismology domain within the European Plate Observing System infrastructure. EPOS Seismology was developed alongside the build-up ... -
Coring of unconsolidated permafrost deposits: methodological successes and challenges
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2015)This technical note presents three scales of drilling infrastructure for comparison. These three methods include: (1) a small hand-drill designed for retrieving cores down to ca. 5 m depth, (2) the medium-scale UNIS ... -
Correlations between the effective permeability and seismic anisotropy of fractured reservoirs
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-08-23)The successful exploitation of many hydrocarbon reservoirs may depend on proper characterization of fractured or composite porous media. However, due to anisotropy and heterogeneity, the characterization of such kind of ... -
Coupled Mg/Ca and Clumped Isotope Measurements Indicate Lack of Substantial Mixed Layer Cooling in the Western Pacific Warm Pool During the Last ∼5 Million Years
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The Indo-Pacific Warm Pool (IPWP) plays a crucial role in influencing climate dynamics both in the tropics and globally. Yet, there is an ongoing controversy concerning the evolution of surface temperatures in the IPWP ... -
Coupled Southern Ocean cooling and Antarctic ice sheet expansion during the middle Miocene
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The middle Miocene climate transition (~14 million years ago) was characterized by a dramatic increase in the volume of the Antarctic ice sheet. The driving mechanism of this transition remains under discussion, with ... -
Coupled stalagmite - Alluvial fan response to the 8.2ka event and early Holocene palaeoclimate change in Greece
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We explore the expression of early Holocene climatic change in the terrestrial Mediterranean of southern Greece. A regional palaeoclimate record from stable isotope and trace element geochemical proxies in an early Holocene ... -
Coupled surface process and tectonic modelling of extension-inversion tectonics in the Pyrenees

Coupling Crustal-Scale Rift Architecture With Passive Margin Salt Tectonics: A Geodynamic Modeling Approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Continental rifted margins are often associated with widespread, thick evaporite (i.e., salt) deposits and pronounced salt tectonics. The majority of salt basins formed during the latest stages of rifting, prior to continental ... -
Crevasses on Svalbard Glaciers: Distribution and Dynamic Controls
(Master thesis, 2015-05-31)Crevasses play a key role in understanding a wide range of glaciological processes, but the current understanding is mainly based on a few key studies. Recent years, studies on crevasse formation have been motivated by the ... -
Crustal domains in the Western Barents Sea
(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 ... -
