The origin of large varioles in flow-banded pillow lava from the Hooggenoeg Complex, Barberton Greenstone Belt, South Africa
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011)Exceptionally well-preserved pillowed and massive phenocryst-free metabasaltic lava flows in the uppermost part of the Palaeoarchaean Hooggenoeg Complex of the Barberton Greenstone Belt exhibit both flow banding and large ... -
Orogenesis from bottom to top – Investigating the geodynamics of mountain building using coupled thermo-mechanical-surface-process models
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-03-10)The objective of this project is to The objective of this project is to advance our understanding of mountain building processes in different plate tectonic settings and with specific focus on the interaction between surface ... -
Outcrop-scale fracture analysis and seismic modelling of a basin-bounding normal fault in platform carbonates, central Italy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Faults are characterized by a complex internal architecture. In carbonates, the geometry, attitude, and distribution of fault-related fractures and subsidiary faults can largely affect the petrophysical properties and hy ... -
Overprinting translational domains in passive margin salt basins: insights from analogue modelling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-08-02)Current models of gravitational tectonics on the structural styles of salt-influenced passive margins typically depict domains of upslope extension and corresponding downslope contraction separated by a mid-slope domain ... -
The overturning circulation in a changing Arctic
(Doctoral thesis, 2023-11-22)Ved å begrense varmeutvekslingen mellom hav og atmosfære bestemmer sjøisen området for dannelse av dypvann i Arktis. Under økte klimagassutslipp trekker sjøisen seg nordover. Mens nyere studier tyder på at Arktis kan være ... -
An overview of the Upper Palaeozoic-Mesozoic stratigraphy of the NE Atlantic region
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)This study describes the distribution and stratigraphic range of the Upper Palaeozoic–Mesozoic succession in the NE Atlantic region, and is correlated between conjugate margins and along the axis of the NE Atlantic rift ... -
Ötzi, 30 years on: A reappraisal of the depositional and post-depositional history of the find
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)When Ötzi, the Iceman, was found in a gully in the Tisenjoch pass in the Tyrolean Alps in 1991, he was a huge surprise for the archaeological community. The lead initial investigator of the find argued that it was unique, ... -
PaCTS 1.0: a crowdsourced reporting standard for paleoclimate data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-09)The progress of science is tied to the standardization of measurements, instruments, and data. This is especially true in the Big Data age, where analyzing large data volumes critically hinges on the data being standardized. ... -
Palaeo-productivity record from Norwegian Sea enables North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) reconstruction for the last 8000 years
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The North Atlantic Oscillation is the dominant atmospheric driver of North Atlantic climate variability with phases corresponding to droughts and cold spells in Europe. Here, we exploit a suggested anti-correlation of North ... -
Paleoceanographic reconstructions across the Plio-Pleistocene from clumped isotope thermometry
(Doctoral thesis, 2023-12-06)Bruk av isotopklyngetermometri (Δ47) på foraminiferer er en relativt ny tilnærming for å estimere havtemperaturer tilbake i tid. I motsetning til mange andre paleotermometre gir denne metoden temperaturer som er upåvirket ... -
Paleoceanography and paleoclimate in the Nordic Seas and the northern North Atlantic during the last 22 000 years
(Doctoral thesis, 2006-09-01)The paleoceanography of the Nordic Seas and the northern North Atlantic during glacial and deglacial times was studied, using oxygen isotopes and Mg/Ca of foraminifera. The specific objectives are listed below: 1) Sea ... -
Paleoclimate changes inferred from stable isotopes and magnetic properties of organic-rich lake sediments in Arctic Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-03-22)Stable isotope measures in organic matter are frequently used as indicators of past climate change. Although such analyses can provide valuable information, there is considerable uncertainty associated with studies of ... -
Paleoenvironmental and diagenetic evolution of the Aptian Pre-Salt succession in Namibe Basin (Onshore Angola)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The Aptian Pre-Salt sedimentary succession cropping out in Cangulo palaeovalley onshore Namibe Basin (Angola) was studied by a combination of field and analytical techniques to constrain the sedimentary and diagenetic ... -
Paleokarst reservoir modelling - A concept-driven approach
(Doctoral thesis, 2021-08-20)A significant proportion of the world's hydrocarbon production comes from paleokarst reservoirs. Although these reservoirs boast some of the most productive wells in oil history, the recovery factor is relatively low ... -
Paleomagnetisk bestemmelse av lokale blokkrotasjoner ved Izmir, Tyrkia
(Master thesis, 2010-09-03)Dagens Tyrkia ligger midt i sonen hvor den Arabiske- og Afrikanske platen kolliderer med den Eurasiske platen. Kollisjonen har ført til at den Anatoliske mikroplaten blir "presset" vestover, og ut i Egeerhavet, som igjen ... -
Paleomagnetiske undersøkingar av dei ediacariske Stappogjedde og Mortensnes formasjonane, Varangerhalvøya, Finnmark
(Master thesis, 2012-05-19)Det tilgjengelege paleomagnetiske datagrunnlaget frå Baltica er mangelfullt og knapt i sein neoptroterozoisk tid, og gjev eit forvirrande bilete av paleogeografien til Baltica. Dette har ført til teoriar om raske ... -
Palynological dating of the upper part of the De Geerdalen Formation on central parts of Spitsbergen and Hopen
(Master thesis, 2013-05-31)The Late Triassic is the most problematic period in terms of resolution and age control. The period spans about 36 million years and consists of three stages - Carnian, Norian and Rhaetian. Only four clusters of radiometric ... -
