Collision between Baltica and Laurentia in Siluro Devonian time resulted in a stack of thrust sheets, the Caledonides of Scandinavia and East Greenland, which were amalgamated and …
Following an outline of Scandinavian Caledonide tectonostratigraphy, tracing the Neoproterozoic, Baltoscandian, passive margin of Baltica outboard into the suspect, Iapetus …
Thirty years of research, and especially the refinements of many geological, geochemical and geophysical techniques, have uncovered many new facets of the geology of the …

Abstract The Geological Survey of Norway (NGU) has produced new aeromagnetic and gravity maps from Norway and adjacent areas, compiled from ground, airborne and satellite …
Detachment fault systems typically record displacements in the order of 10s of kilometers. The principles that control the growth of smaller magnitude normal faults are not fully …
Tectonic lineaments of the Norwegian mainland have been outlined and characterised in a new lineament map of Norway. The underlay is a natio nal coverage of Landsat TM 7 …
The large‐magnitude faults that control crustal thinning and excision at rifted margins combine into laterally persistent structural boundaries that separate margin domains of …
