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

Analysis of Deformation Data at Grímsvötn (Iceland) Reveal Viscoelastic and Cyclic Magma Chamber Dynamics
(Master thesis, 2024-06-03)Volcanic eruptions are quite unpredictable and pose a great hazard to humans and society. The most efficient way to mitigate this hazard is through improved understanding of volcanic systems. This can be done through ... -
Anatomy and allostratigraphy of deep-marine Mount Messenger Formation (Miocene), eastern-margin Taranaki Basin, New Zealand
(Master thesis, 2003)Purpose of study: Sedimentological description of outcropping deep-water clastics within Mount Messenger Formation. Study area: North-Taranaki coastal region, North Island, New Zealand. Methodology: Mapping on foot and ... -
Anisotropic Properties of a Mid-Lithospheric Discontinuity in eastern North America
(Master thesis, 2017-06-23)During the last few years the occurrence of a mid-lithospheric discontinuity (MLD) has been observed in lithospheric studies of cratons. Studies using receiver functions have focused mainly on extracting high resolution ... -

Anoxic Sediments & Ice Coverage: Severe Winter Climate Indicators in the Acrctic from Lake Stuptjørna, Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2024-08-05)The Arctic is experiencing accelerated climate change, which has global significance. Changes in temperature and precipitation in the region affect glacier and ice cap dynamics, sea ice extent, eustatic sea level rise, and ... -
Antropogen påvirkning og bæreevne i turistgrotter: Grønligrotta, Mo i Rana
(Master thesis, 2018-06-20)Grønligrotta er den eneste turistgrotta i Norge med innlagt belysning og god tilrettelegging for turister. Hensikten med denne masteroppgaven har vært å undersøke hvordan turistene påvirker miljøet i grotta, og om dette ... -
Architecture and Sedimentology of Late Weichselian Delta Deposit in Vie, Førde Norway
(Master thesis, 2023-12-04)An early Holocene glacier front deposit of a lower outwash fan and an upper delta, at Vie sandpit next to the town of Førde in Sunnfjord municipality in western Norway has been investigated using various fields methods, ... -
Assessing linkages between ice sheet calving, subpolar gyre hydrography and deep water ventilation during the last glaciation
(Master thesis, 2017-06-23)It is commonly postulated that ice sheet dynamics and freshwater perturbations in the North Atlantic were linked to disruptions in deep water circulation and North Atlantic cooling in the past. However, the exact nature ... -
