Eocene magmatic breakup along the mid‐Norway rifted margin was preceded by extreme Jurassic‐Cretaceous crustal thinning in a magma‐poor environment. Along the SE borders …
Terra Nova, 23, 349–361, 2011 Abstract The long‐term evolution of kilometre (s) high, seaward‐facing escarpments at passive margins is linked directly to the crustal thinning …
Basement fracture and fault patterns on passive continental margins control the onshore landscape and offshore distribution of sediment packages and fluid pathways. In this study …
We present results of a multidisciplinary study of the northern segment of the Vøring volcanic rifted margin, offshore mid‐Norway. This segment represents a transitional margin domain …
Lithospheric stretching is the key process in forming extensional sedimentary basins at passive rifted margins. This study explores the stretching factors, resulting extension, and …
New structural data, published AFT data, and topographic data suggest that the latest Cretaceous–Cenozoic uplift of western Norway was associated with normal reactivation of …
Well-developed detrital clay grain coats are observed in deep-marine sandstones of the Upper Cretaceous Springar Formation of the Vøring Basin in the Norwegian Sea. The …
The mid-Norwegian passive margin is a multiphase rifted margin that developed since the Devonian. Its geometry is affected by the long-lived activity of the Møre-Trøndelag fault …
The nature of the Lower Crustal Body (LCB) underneath the western part of the Vøring margin (NE Atlantic) is studied with three scenarios of its extension history:(a) The LCB is …
