    The Trænadjupet Slide: Sediment Disintegration and Flow

    The Trænadjupet Slide is located on the continental slope of Norway immediately NE of the Vøring Plateau (Dowdeswell et al. 1996). The slide-affected area extends from the shelf break to >3,000 m water depth in t...

    Morphology of the Lofoten Basin Channel

    A deep-sea channel system, the Lofoten Basin Channel, has been identified in the SE Lofoten Basin (Dowdeswell et al. 1996; Vorren et al. 1998). The channel represents the downslope continuation of the Andøya Cany...

    Submarine Glacigenic Debris Flows on the Bear Island Trough Mouth Fan, Western Barents Sea: Aspects of Flow Behaviour

    The Bear Island Trough Mouth Fan is situated in front of the Bear Island Trough in the western Barents Sea. The fan extends from the shelf break to water depths greater than 3,000 m and covers an area of appro...

    Preconditions Leading to the Holocene Trænadjupet Slide Offshore Norway

    The Traenadjupet Slide (14,100 km2) remobilised an up to 180 m thick package comprising late Weichselian glacigenic sediments and an underlying late Saalian — late Weichselian contourite drift. Rapid burial of th...

    The Lofoten Contourite Drift: High-Resolution Seismic Stratigraphy

    A contourite drift, the Lofoten Drift, has been identified from ca. 1,000 m water depth on the continental slope off northern Norway (Laberg et al. 1999) (Fig. 1). The Norwegian Current transporting Atlantic wate...

    Slope Instability of Continental Margins

    Giant submarine landslides occur on almost every contintental margin. Individual slides involve up to 20,000 km3 of slope material and cover an area of up to 113,000 km2. Their wide spread distribution and their ...

    The glacier-fed fan at the mouth of Storfjorden trough, western Barents Sea: a comparative study

    The Middle and Late Pleistocene succession on the glacier-fed fan at the mouth of Storfjorden trough was studied using high-resolution seismic data. Seven glacial advances to the shelf break during Middle and ...

    The Western Barents Sea during the Cenozoic

    Seismic reflection data and well logs are used to interpret Cenozoic sedimentary environments in the southwestern Barents Sea. By volumetric calculation we have quantified the Cenozoic erosion and sedimentatio...
