Landforms and uplift history of southern Norway

Global and Planetary Change, 2000
Abstract After a review of previous ideas on the morphogenesis of southern Norway, a description of relief features is presented and a comparison with the suite of landforms occurring at the passive continental margin of eastern Australia is performed. Major landscape features such as high plateaux, a great escarpment, and a coastal plain are similar

Mesoproterozoic anorogenic magmatism in southern Norway

Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 1996
Abstract The 1500 Ma Rjukan Group of the Telemark Supracrustal Suite, south Norway, consists of a metamorphosed sequence of acid volcanic rocks (Tuddal Formation) overlain by a comparable thickness of metabasalts (Vemork Formation). Both acid and basic volcanic rocks have within-plate chemical compositions.

Crustal structure beneath southern Norway imaged by magnetotellurics

Tectonophysics, 2014
Abstract We use data from two magnetotelluric profiles, ToSca10 and ToSca'09, over the Scandinavian Mountains to study the crustal structure in southern Norway. The profiles cross the major tectonic structures of the Caledonian orogen as well as the western margin of the Precambrian Baltica.

Long Period Microseisms in Southern Norway

1974
Abstract : Sea wave recordings from the Norwegian Coast and seismic recordings from the long period instruments of the Norwegian Seismic Array (NORSAR) and from the new broad band long period instruments at Kongsberg have been used to study the characteristics and the source locations of long period microseisms in Southern Norway.

A seismic profile in southern Norway

pure and applied geophysics, 1980
Data from a reversed seismic crustal profile crossing the Caledonides of southern Norway suggest a continuously increasing P-wave velocity followed by a low-velocity zone extending from a depth of about 14 km downwards. Interpretation of observed travel time and amplitude characteristics leads to a thickness of 4 km and velocity of 6.0 km/s for this ...
