• Norwegian margin outer shelf cracking: a consequence of climate-induced gas hydrate dissociation? 

      Mienert, Jurgen; Vanneste, Maarten; Haflidason, Haflidi; Bünz, Stefan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010)
      A series of en echelon cracks run nearly parallel to the outer shelf edge of the mid-Norwegian margin. The features can be followed in a *60-km-long and *5-km-wide zone in which up to 10-m-deep cracks developed in the ...

      Berndt, Christian; Planke, Sverre; Alvarez Zarikian, Carlos A.; Frieling, Joost; Jones, Morgan Thomas; Millett, John M.; Brinkhuis, Henk; Bünz, Stefan; Svensen, Henrik Hovland; Longman, Jack; Scherer, Reed P.; Karstens, Jens; Manton, Ben; Nelissen, Mei; Reed, Brandon; Faleide, Jan Inge; Huismans, Ritske Sipke; Agarwal, Amar; Andrews, Graham D.M.; Betlem, Peter; Bhattacharya, Joyeeta; Chatterjee, Sayantani; Christopoulou, Marialena; Clementi, Vincent J.; Ferré, Eric C.; Filina, Irina Y.; Guo, Pengyuan; Harper, Dustin T.; Lambart, Sarah; Mohn, Geoffroy; Nakaoka, Reina; Tegner, Christian; Varela, Natalia; Wang, Mengyuan; Xu, Weimu; Yager, Stacy L. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      The Palaeocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) was a global warming event of 5–6 °C around 56 million years ago caused by input of carbon into the ocean and atmosphere. Hydrothermal venting of greenhouse gases produced in ...
    • Upper cretaceous-paleogene stratigraphy and development of the Mímir High, Vøring transform margin, Norwegian Sea 

      Polteau, Stephane; Planke, Sverre; Zastrozhnov, Dmitrii; Abdelmalak, Mohamed Mansour; Lebedeva-Ivanova, Nina; Eckhoff Planke, Ellen; Svensen, Henrik; Mazzini, Adriano; Gernigon, Laurent; Myklebust, Reidun; Kjølhamar, Bent; Pedersen, Rolf B.; Sandstå, Nils Rune; Bünz, Stefan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Transform margins represent strike-slip type of plate boundaries that form during continental breakup and initial ocean opening. They are often characterized by margin-parallel highs with exposed pre- and syn-rift sequences. ...
    • Volcanically hosted venting with indications of ultramafic influence at Aurora hydrothermal field on Gakkel Ridge 

      German, Christopher R.; Reeves, Eoghan; Türke, Andreas; Diehl, Alexander; Albers, Elmar; Bach, Wolfgang; Purser, Autun; Ramalho, Sofia P.; Suman, Stefano; Mertens, Christian; Walter, Maren; Ramirez-Llodra, Eva; Schlindwein, Vera; Bünz, Stefan; Boetius, Antje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      The Aurora hydrothermal system, Arctic Ocean, hosts active submarine venting within an extensive field of relict mineral deposits. Here we show the site is associated with a neovolcanic mound located within the Gakkel Ridge ...
