How do normal faults grow? In this geolunch talk, Atle will tell us about how he and some of his friends/co-authors decided to have a stab at figuring out how normal faults actually grow while he was on sabbatical in New …
Source-to-sink in a western Norwegian fjord: How does landslides, floods and grinding glaciers influence sediment supply in the Holocene? Thomas Thuesen, William Helland-Hansen, Christian Haug Eide, Haflidi Haflidason, Atle Nesje Western Norwegian fjord-valley systems represent archives of changes in …
This is not properly speaking a geolunch. The meeting is held in conjunction with the 2019 Annual national conference on the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a collaboration between Academia Europaea and the UiB Program for Climate and Energy …
The Pyrenean orogen: new insights into plate convergence Over the last 10 years a number of major research projects have focused on the Pyrenean orogen and adjacent areas. These projects are providing new insights into many aspects of orogenesis. The …

Supercritical and superheated geothermal systems in Iceland - Insight from field cases Deep drilling in high-temperature geothermal systems by the Iceland Deep Drilling (IDDP) project is aimed at increasing the power output of high-temperature geothermal fields by an order of …
Detachment faulting during continental breakup and slow/ultraslow seafloor spreading Detachment faults, apparently gently-dipping long offset normal faults, are observed in some continental rifts, at some rifted margins, and at both slow and ultraslow spreading ridges. Key questions revolve around their …
A preview of the Bergen Arcs Seismic Experiment (BASE) and how the data collected will be automatically processed In this talk, I will give an overview of the Bergen Arcs Seismic Experiment (BASE), which is currently ongoing and aims to …
Selective influence of pre-existing intra-basement shear zones on subsequent rift-related normal faults Pre-existing intra-basement shear zones can induce mechanical and rheological heterogeneities that may influence rifting and the overall geometry of rift-related normal faults. However, the extent to which physical …
