Tana - a very old river: Linking an Early Triassic delta to antecedent topography The Fennoscandian Barents Sea Margin has been subject to little tectonic activity since the Carboniferous, and large portions have eluded significant Quaternary glacial erosion. Published fission …
Pre-Mesozoic structural configuration in the northern North Sea rift basin; as a result of Devonian orogenic collapse in the Scandinavian-Scottish Caledonides The northern North Sea rift basin is a product of multiple rifting phases during the Mesozoic time, developed on …
Potential temperature and margin width control melt volume at rifted margins Gang Lu and Ritske S. Huismans Passive continental margins may have a wide variety of structural and magmatim styles, but the controlling factors of magmatism remain controversial. Common explanations …
Raiders of the Lost Arc by Eirik Wiese, Felix Halpaap, Ronny Tømmerbakke, Sebastian Wolf Abstract: In this more or less scientific geolunch, we present geological and some sociocultural revelations from our field trip to the Brasilia belt in southern Minas Gerais …

Post-Caledonian fault activity in W-Norway: onshore and offshore don’t match – or do they? by Ksienzyk, A.K., Wemmer, K., Rotevatn, A., Fazlikhani, H., Jacobs, J., Fossen, H. K-Ar or Ar-Ar analyses of fault gouge fine fractions are becoming well-established methods …
Silica diagenesis and physical properties of Cenozoic rocks in the North Viking Graben, northern North Sea by Thilo Wrona, Christopher A-L. Jackson, Mads Huuse and Kevin G. Taylor As an introduction, I thought it would be nice to present some …
Long-term coupling and feedbacks between surface processes and tectonics during rifting Whereas significant efforts have been made to understand the feedback between mountain building and surfaces processes, limited research has been done on the relationship between surface processes and extensional tectonics. …
Inverse modeling of Eocene to mid-Pliocene landscape evolution in Scandinavia using offshore sediment volumes The origin of high topography in Scandinavia is highly debated, both in terms of its age and the underlying mechanism for its formation. Traditionally, the current …
